FINE ARTS

Art: The goals are to unlock the creativity in each child and to build confidence in creative expression. The curriculum focuses on skill development as well as exposure to different media, including paint, pastels, ink, colored pencils, markers and clay. Pre-kindergarten and kindergarten teachers incorporate art into their daily classroom instruction. In grades one through five, the students have art every week.  Middle School students take art for one semester each year, and Upper School students have several art electives from which to choose.  Advanced Placement Studio Art is also offered.

Classes meet every week for Lower School.  Middle School students take Music for one semester each year.  Upper School music electives are offered to the students.

Drama:  The goals are to provide opportunities for students to participate in all aspects of productions.  Through skits, short plays, and major productions, students will have chances to be creative and develop skills they can use throughout life.
