We also explore different art mediums/materials, and learn about art history through famous artist projects.

 

Music - Sr. MaryAnn Caspary

The music program provides students in each grade level with the opportunity to perform, to create and to listen to music.  Musical understanding  is gained by exploring and learning about the elements of music.  The students will be able to keep the beat, when moving to the song or playing classroom instruments. The students also will be able to use high, middle and low voices and identify different types of voices (speak, sing, whisper, shout and think or audiate a song).

All students will have the opportunity to develop their Catholic identity and deepen their faith by singing hymns and preparing  for our annual Christmas concert.
