Edwin S. Richards Arts Based Curriculum School
Edwin S. Richards Elementary School is
a designated Arts Based Curriculum school of choice (September 2013). Its vision is to move its
students to a place where creativity, collaboration, leadership, and thinking
skills go hand in hand to provide active, positive, and effective learning
experiences. Classroom teachers, while not having fine arts degrees, are
actively pursuing innovative ways in which students can demonstrate their
understanding with and through the arts. Professional discussions, staff
collaboration, as well as partnerships with artists in residence and parents
have provided the keys necessary to unlocking the door for the school’s
continuing arts journey. While the process of using the fine arts to provide
rich learning experiences for its students is paramount, the school celebrates
with its community each spring through a presentation of its arts learning.
