Arts

Art

The Lower School art program is a skill developing, confidence building, creative curriculum. As an introduction to the Visual Arts, boys learn to draw and paint through sequentially developed skills based upon the individual students' abilities. Emphasis is placed on creative risk-taking. All of the boys participate in an art appreciation program, an annual art exhibit, and displays of numerous art projects mounted throughout the year. There is a balanced element of process and product worthy of display.

Students also have the option to practice their public speaking and acting skills through annualdrama presentations. Students participate in class presentations that include anything from simply the reading of a script to more elaborate, memorized productions of plays and musicals.

Faculty

Music

The Pre and Lower School music program is based on Orff-Schulwerk, a music teaching methodology that uses a "whole music" approach. Children have a variety of opportunities to experience music through singing, playing instruments, listening, poetry, movement, discussion, reading, writing and art.  The goal of the Pre and Lower School music program is to make music available to all children, to instill in them a sense of joy and openness toward music, to encourage them to share their ideas and talents, and to help each child recognize the important role that music plays in their culture nd in their own lives.
