Art Show at Spring Concert

May 12th was the Spring Concert for grades K-6. Students sang in both the choir and played in the band. Outside the theater in the foyer student artwork was on display! 

Facts about Art in Education: 

• "Students who study art are 4 times more likely to be recognized for academic achievement and 3 times more likely to be awarded for school attendance."
• "Multiple studies have concluded that curricular and extracurricular art studies and activities help keep high-risk dropout students stay in school."
• "The No Child Left Behind Act clearly mandates The Arts (music, art, foreign language, etc.) as a core academic subject."
