Arts are integral
to the education of the Lower
School child.
 Music
and visual art give students a language with which to
communicate and express their ideas and feelings.
When children are engaged in the creative
process and discussions, they learn how connected they are
to other people and cultures. The arts inspire creative responses,
critical thinking and problem solving.
Lower School students receive two art classes
and two music classes each week to launch them in discovering
unanticipated possibilities.
