Arts for all Students

All of our students, from kindergarten through eighth grade, receive regular classes in art, music and physical education. Students in all of our schools can also opt for instrumental music classes such as band and string ensembles. 

Monte Vista School is an Arts Integration School providing elements of arts education in daily classroom instruction and arts electives. 

The arts programs are highly visible, not only within our school district, but also in the community. Student artwork is displayed during arts festivals, with business partners, and in numerous other exhibitions throughout the school year. Band and choir students perform school concerts and events, as do dance and drama students. 

Our dedicated teachers adhere to state standards, but often go far beyond those requirements to ensure the very best possible experience for all students. 

Numerous studies show that when the arts are an integral part of the curriculum, children excel in other academic disciplines at much higher levels than children who do not have those opportunities. At Creighton our focus is educating the whole child.
