Middle School Arts

Arts is an integral part of the school experience at Inwood Academy Middle School.

Overview

Arts education improves communication, collaboration, creativity, and critical thinking skills, which help to prepare our students for life and leadership. Validating our belief in the impact of our arts programs, extensive research has shown that students exposed to drama, music and dance are often more proficient at reading, writing, and math, as well as improving their social skills and motivation.

Arts Programs

Performing Arts+

Through our performing arts class, students learn acting along with directing, design, construction and stage management. They enjoy meeting professionals in the field, going to performances, and stage a musical, the most coveted school event of the year.
Visual Arts+

The visual arts curriculum gives students an alternative means of expression and the tools to create their own unique personal voice. The class is an inquiry-driven learning environment where students seek the intersection of curiosity and creativity.

A student’s artwork is as unique as they are, and I feel privileged to get a peek into the person they are through their art. Amie Savage, Art Teacher

We have been able to create a family for students here and if I’m being honest, for me, too. John Harrison, Woodshop Teacher

We do not evaluate our year by wins and losses but by the development of character. Jason Marchena, Director of Athletics
