Our School Lady’s Island Elementary is an arts-integrated school with a tradition of excellence in academics and the arts. Our school is a gallery of beautiful artwork created by our students and staff. We have become a popular school-of-choice that serves a diverse population of students in Pre-K through fourth grades. In addition to teaching rigorous curriculum standards through the arts in our classrooms, we offer gifted and talented arts programs including guitar, dance, drama, show choir, and visual arts. We also offer an after-school strings class.
Definition of Arts Integration
Arts Integration is an APPROACH to TEACHING in which students construct and demonstrate UNDERSTANDING through an ART FORM. Students engage in a CREATIVE PROCESS which CONNECTS an art form and another subject are and meets EVOLVING OBJECTIVES in both. -Kennedy Center’s Definition of Arts Integration
Peer through the windows of our classrooms, and you will see children happily engaged in artistic activities in which learning is an effortless pleasure. There are special events and performances that entertain, inform, and inspire audiences of all ages.
