Answer:
in new york state, i know, you are required to fulfill one art credit, which would be a studio art course.
if you are referring to suggested art courses if you wish to pursue art in college, you should consider which style of art you like best: photography, video and digital art, ceramics, or drawing and painting. from there, either zone in on one or take a sampling of all. hopefully your school offers some advanced- level courses such as AP drawing and AP 2d.
