Early Release Arts Sampler Package
Our early release programs encourage creative expression. Our goals are to encourage life-long learning, develop and promote self-expression, and challenge students to develop their own ideas and ultimately communicate them through the arts.
The Friday Early School release program is a rotating Arts schedule that maximizes our students’ exposure to all the arts. The schedule is customized based on our most popular programming. Our goals are to provide opportunities to improve students’ awareness of all the arts, provide creative activities, and to have fun in a safe, structured environment.
Early release days may include, but are not limited to: Clay Creations, Fine Arts Academy, Actors Playground, Deep Play for Kids, Yoga & Mindfulness, Boomwhacker Bonanza, Singing and Movement.
