The Fine, Visual, and Performing Arts curriculum is designed to inspire greater levels of academic achievement by linking student interest and talent in the arts to all aspects of their education experience. By tapping into their strengths as artists, teachers lead students to improve their overall skills in reading, writing, science and math.

Mission: The arts enable personal, intellectual, social, economic, and human growth by fostering creativity and providing opportunities for expression beyond the limits of language.

Students at Rose Lopez School will participate in a variety of art projects, conversations and activities. Our goal is to empower students and foster a lifetime love of learning, creating and expressing through the arts. Education in art and music help students understand the world, cultures and people they encounter through the unique lense the arts offers.  It is a privilege to teach and inspire the next generation of artists, makers, leaders, designers, teachers, composers, musicians directors and engineers on their lifelong educational journey.

Thank you for your support of arts education!
