Arts

Equally important to opportunities for creativity and exposure to new materials is the development of an “Art Literacy” in the GAA student—a foundation of art knowledge as well as an appreciation for our cultural differences and similarities, and ways of expressing ourselves, from distant past to present. Within our school culture of kindness, students develop the critical thinking skills to allow them to reflect, respond and critique in healthy and constructive ways.

Part of our creative process is how we share and present our work to our community. To this end, students work towards their yearly art festival where they are given an opportunity to celebrate their accomplishments with peers and families.
