Alphonsus Academy & Center for the Arts

PRESCHOOL AND ELEMENTARY ARTS CLASSES

The schedule for preschool and elementary students ensures that students see art, drama, and music teachers for the entire year. This set-up ensures necessary continuity for our students to maintain and build their skills in each subject as well as their relationship with the entire arts team.

• Preschool and Kindergarten classes meet for 30 minutes,
• 1-3^rd grade classes meet for 45 minutes
• 4^th grade classes meet for 50 minutes

The middle school arts pathways classes are introduced to fourth grade students during their regular schedule: 

• A new 4^th grade technology class teaches technology skills and media arts basics.
• A new 3-4^th grade choir will be taught through the Chicago Children’s Choir once a week
• 4^th grade music will be expanded to include a unit on band instruments
