Elementary Arts Programs

  • Music and visual arts are offered to all K-5 elementary students.  Classes in each are offered one time per week for approximately 40 - 50 minutes. Classes are taught by specialists that are licensed in the content area, and all teachers have their own, dedicated  classrooms.

    Nurturing the Whole Child

    At the elementary level, arts experiences nurture the whole child and help students develop cognitively, physically, and socially and emotionally. Developmentally appropriate activities help children develop fine and gross motor skills. Students explore a wide variety of experiences, learn about their own interests, make connections to other subject areas, and develop unique talents.
