Arts Integration

At WESA, we take an arts integrated approach to teach the Colorado State Standards. We are a member of the Pikes Peak Arts Integrative Collaborative and a Kennedy Center Partner in Education and use the Kennedy Center’s Definition of Arts Integration. WESA offers several unique specials and offerings to include: visual art, music, drama, P.E., library, design studio, band and strings (4th & 5th grade), and an all school musical. The school also offers several clubs to include: drama, art, lego robotics, running club, dance, and coding.  Lastly, WESA also values arts for art's sake and seeks to give students opportunities to experience the arts by going to plays, concerts, and museums when possible.

WESA students will meet Colorado Music Standards by exploring elements of music through singing, playing, instruments, and performance. 

ART

Students will learn different art vocabulary, explore different art mediums, and learn about artists and art history.

Students in Drama Class

In drama, K-3 students will focus on acting elements and 4-5 grade students will build upon what they've learned by learning about different jobs in the theatre.
