MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL: Enrollment in the Arts & PE Uniforms

Enrollment in the ARTS!! Not just for the artistic!

Consider enrolling your student in a Fine or Performing Arts course for the 2020-21 school year!! Art classes are important to ALL students! Does your child struggle with independent thinking? Creativity? Time Management? Working in groups? Expressing themselves? All of this and more is learned through exposure to the arts. Students who are enrolled in the arts don’t only become better at art, they develop skills to approach all of their other classes in creative ways! As I always say to my students’ parents at Back to School Night, “We learn 20 different ways to draw an apple… but it’s not about the apple.” We are preparing our students to compete in an innovation rich work force… Innovation is a skill that can be taught. IT IS TAUGHT IN THE ARTS.  Find us on Social Media #whsbulldogarts Follow these links for more information about the arts! Reach out to Elaine Florimonte eflorimonte@fcps.edu for more information about the arts at Westfield.
