We are very pleased to continue our partnership with the University of North Carolina School of the Arts ArtistCorp Program. This program places accomplished artists/musicians in schools to work with high-needs students. Members of ArtistCorp work directly with Pre-Kindergarten to high school students to strengthen community and learning through the use of music, movement, acting and art. This year, we are fortunate to have 16 ArtistCorp Members working at our school. We have an Integration Team that works with 5th grade students and teachers to facilitate integration in math. We have a group of ArtistCorp Members who work with PreK in the Vivaldi Project to further expose students to string instruments, particularly the violin. We are excited that the Vivaldi Project has been extended to Kindergarten this year as well. We also have a small group of Members who work with band and visual art through team teaching, one-on-one student rehearsals, set design, creation of props, and more.
