Art
Our school works closely with CBO's to coordinate opportunities for students to experience the ARTS through residencies and fieldtrips. In addition, our own teachers run clubs and opportunities for students to work on the arts through various clubs. Students often see their work displayed around the building and enjoy engaging in arts related activities. This year in addition to our regular residencies, we partnered with Teatro SEA and Black Box Productions for theatre and photography.
