- Story Time
- If you love stories then Story Time Club is for you. Every week our club members take little field trips in our brains to many places. We focus on either a character, author or theme. Some of our favorites have been books about dogs, Disney books, and the Olivia the Pig stories. We love to settle down after a busy day at school, listen and enjoy wherever our stories take us!

- Movie Club
- Movies are a great way to introduce SEL (social emotional learning) concepts to kiddos. In Movie Club, we watch different Disney movies that correlate with different CASEL and RULER concepts for SEL. For example, after watching the movie Inside Out we discussed our emotions and what in our own worlds gives us those emotions. The students then work on watercolor paintings representing their emotions.

- Knitting
- Would you like to learn the art of knitting? In the knitting club, students will learn a brief history of how knitting first began. They will learn how to cast on to their needles, master the knit stitch and the purl stitch. Club knitters will also learn how to tell the two stitches apart. Knitters will make 2-3 projects during our club this season.

Fine Arts
Art
In elementary grade art classes, students will explore many different aspects of visual art. Students will let their creativity flow by engaging in activities such as drawing and painting with various materials. They also learn art vocabulary, explore the work of many different artists and art movements, and learn to appreciate art as it enhances our world.
Music
In elementary grade music classes, students will learn and practice the basic fundamental elements of music such as sound, melody, harmony, rhythm, and expression (dynamics, tempo, articulation). Students will engage in singing, playing instruments, responding to music with movement, and connecting with various cultures through music. These classes will help students develop creativity, self-expression, and problem-solving while creating music together as a team. These classes will also provide students with performance opportunities, which will help them develop a sense of ensemble, tolerance, perseverance, and rigor—enabling them to be well-rounded citizens of our global society.
