Every year students delve into exciting content knowledge that they just don't get in other schools. Students get consistent, quality instruction in visual art, music, physical education, and computer science. Our "specials" teachers collaborate regularly with classroom teachers to integrate with and support the core curriculum. They are not siloed; they are an integral part of our program.
