Who Are We?

Welcome to Diggs-Latham Elementary A+ Magnet School for Performing Arts & Arts Integration. 
We are a public, elementary school in Winston-Salem, NC in the Winston-Salem/Forsyth County School District. We serve grades pre-kindergarten through fifth. We have approximately 500 students. Our school mascot is a Tiger.  In the Magnet Program, we offer Visual Art, Band, Dance, Music, Orchestra, Physical Education and Technology.  In the fourth and fifth grade, we offer a specialized 'honors' group for each subject/special.  These small groups consist of students who have been in the Magnet Program for several years, usually since kindergarten, and have excelled.  The 'honors' groups become the lead performing groups.
