Electives
TK-8th Grade
Art
Our Art Elective invites students on a creative journey through a variety of media and artistic styles. Young artists will explore drawing, painting, collage, and sculpture as they learn to express themselves and develop their unique artistic voices. Along the way, students will be introduced to inspiring artists from around the world and throughout history—from Michelangelo to Yayoi Kusama, from impressionism to pop art. This elective encourages imagination, builds fine motor skills, and fosters an appreciation for the many forms and traditions of visual art.
TK-8th Grade
Music & Band
Our Music Elective offers students a fun and enriching introduction to the world of music. Through singing, rhythm games, and hands-on activities, students explore a wide variety of musical genres, artists, and composers from different cultures and time periods. They learn foundational music theory, how to read music, and begin preparing for future instrumental instruction. Each grade level also participates in its own special Christmas cantata, giving students the opportunity to perform and celebrate the joy of Christmas with their families.
We also offer an optional band program for those who wish to dive deeper into music theory and instrumental performance.
