Once a week, students in second grade are introduced to violin instruction. School violins are provided.

ART

Students in grades K-2 investigate and explore materials, techniques and artistic processes. They observe and discuss the works of famous artists and study historical periods and artistic styles as they begin to develop a language for speaking about art and sharing their ideas in a meaningful way.

The elements of art are introduced to the students which includes color, line, balance, value, shape, space and form through a variety of projects throughout the year.
