The mission of Global Arts Plus is to provide a quality, comprehensive, arts-infused education.
 
Beginning at our Lower Campus, children embrace their identity as emerging artists: learning how the arts make our identities unique and powerful.
 
Students are challenged with rigorous reading, writing, and math instruction. Additionally, arts classes are taught by trained specialists in the areas of visual arts, drama, vocal music, instrumental music, and dance.
 
Our artist-in-residence programs enlist diverse voices and talents; students may learn flamenco dancing, Taiko drumming, poetry and more. Students continue their artistic evolution and showcase their learning at Friday gatherings, a weekly event that builds community among our young artists.
 

We offer:

  • PreK (full day)
  • Language Academy
  • Extended Day for Learning (EDL) for grades 2-8
  • Discovery Club for grades PreK-5 (fee-based, off-site)
  • AVID for grades 5-8
  • World Language: Spanish (grades 5-8)
