Bringing arts integration into all academic classes, such as English, history, science, and math, and giving teachers prep time to design units
Improving facilities and art spaces for our visual and performing arts classes
Allowing for arts-focused field trips, recruiting events like Picture Yourself at CPMA Day, and campus-wide events like Creating Connections
Starting and continuing partnerships and classes with professional artists and organizations
Providing after-school arts classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays, such as pottery, rock band, and print-making
Facilitating student recruitment with Monday school tours, Saturday auditions, and presentations at elementary schools.
