WE INSPIRE CREATIVITY - ARTS BASED EDUCATION

Arts-Integrated Education
Performing and visual arts are woven into our curriculum at RVC. Creativity and performance build confidence, let kids express themselves joyfully, and bring us together as a community.

Visual Arts
RVC’s visual arts program complements the creative work students do throughout the school day. In art class, children explore a wide range of materials, techniques, and artistic processes that build skills, spark imagination, and support creative expression.

Music Education
In addition to singing together in class and in our weekly all-school gatherings, our students have music class once per week in grades TK through 3rd, and twice a week in 4th and 5th grade. In music class, students explore instruments and musical styles from around the world, and try new forms of musical expression. They develop rhythm and musicality in age-appropriate ways that build over time.

Art and Inquiry
At RVC, art is also part of how students learn. As they explore academic concepts, students may use drawing, model-making, visual representation, and performance to investigate ideas and express understanding. This helps make learning more concrete, creative, and meaningful.
