Arts Program

At Transfiguration Elementary School, we value the arts as an integral part of our curriculum.  Students are given a unique opportunity to develop their creative and personal potential to the fullest while pursuing excellence in their academic studies in a vibrant and stimulating environment.  Key to our students success is a curriculum including the visual, performing, and media arts.

Grade level teachers weave art into instruction, creating a unique and well-rounded developmental environment.  The arts are shown to benefit cognitive development, critical analysis, problem solving skills, and self-esteem.  Students who are consistently involved with the arts are shown to do better academically and have higher literacy and attendance rates.  Furthermore, the arts give student the opportunity to develop new skill sets and learn from various historical and cultural traditions.
