Art is central to our curriculum because we recognize that self-expression and creativity are essential to learning, brain development and high academic performance. The practice of art enhances many important disciplines of learning while helping children to develop good work habits, problem-solving skills and self-reliance.
Our arts program includes:
Preschool students may choose to work with our art specialists in their classrooms 4-5 mornings a week. Preschoolers also rotate through music classes with our music specialist in our dedicated music classroom.
Elementary students (grades K-4) meet with one of our music specialists twice a week and one of our art specialists twice a week.
Middle school students (grades 5-8) enroll in music, art and drama classes as part of the middle school Selectives program.
