The Arts at Dayspring

At the elementary level, learners explore art, dance, drama, music, and physical education during their Arts Enhancement time each day. These explorations are guided and inspired by the core content they are learning in the classroom. Classroom teachers incorporate the arts into their lessons, giving learners a variety of ways to discover and express new ideas. Elementary learners may also participate in two public performances each school year: our Winter Festival and the elementary musical.

Secondary learners choose their electives based on their personal goals and interests. Arts electives include a range of courses in dance, music, theatre, and visual arts. Performance and exhibition opportunities abound, including our Winter Festival, musical theatre productions, plays, gallery nights, dance competitions, concerts, and the spring showcase. Learners can aspire to recognition through participation in arts honor societies, including the International Thespian Society, the National Art Honor Society, the National Honor Society for Dance Arts, and the Tri-M Music Honor Society.
