Arts Enrichment
With the support of Friends of Franklin, our school is able to provide annual rotations of Art, Music and Dance instruction to our students. We are proud to offer these supplemental programs as Arts education has been shown to improve children's confidence, creativity, academic performance and motor skills.
Art
Every student at Franklin will receive a rotation of visual arts instruction. Each child learns to express their creativity in mediums from ranging from clay to colored pencil.
Music and Dance
In the music program at Franklin students sing, play a variety of percussion instruments, glockenspiels, autoharps, triangles, and bells and rehearse for the International Sing & Dance performance with multicultural songs and dances for all grade levels.
Recorders: Friends of Franklin has generously provided recorders for all 3rd grade students, which will be their property for the entire school year.
Orchestra
Franklin is pleased to partner with The Orchestra Place to offer an enriching instrumental music program to enhance our core curriculum. Students in grades 3rd, 4th, and 5th are eligible to join Franklin's Orchestra
Chorus
3rd-5th graders will have a chance to audition for the Chorus and four students will be chosen from each upper-grade classroom.
