Arts at Propel Schools
Why We Value the Arts
In our Arts classrooms, scholars experience a culturally affirming, emotionally and physically safe space for all to take risks and engage in productive struggle. All scholars have access to grade-level (Tier 1) content through engaging, authentic learning experiences.
Embracing the power of creativity
Scholars in our K-12 schools receive instruction from certified art, music, and physical education teachers.
Our quest for excellence at Propel Schools includes the arts in our academic endeavors. Propel embraces creativity's power in helping scholars build confidence and find their authentic voices.
Fully Valued Arts Programming
We do not view arts as a luxury at Propel Schools—the arts are crucial to our mission of preparing scholars to be productive citizens.
Creative Instruction
Scholars get more than art and music classes through our fully valued arts program, which includes Creative Arts, Fine Arts, and Propel Performing Arts Academy.
