Celebrating the Arts
First-graders took a moment out of their busy school day recently to celebrate the arts. Each first-grade teacher led a different fall themed art project.
Celebrating the arts is important because it promotes creativity, critical thinking, cultural awareness, emotional development, and a range of skills that benefit students academically and personally.
