  • Art

    The St. Pius X Art Department curriculum trains all grade level students to appreciate and develop the techniques used in the creation of their own works of art.

    Students learn composition and creation of personal/cultural expression through creative individual and group coursework.  Additionally, each year Art Department students work on multiple larger art projects supporting the Drama Department and other school events.

    Students will progress over grade levels from art basics to advanced works reflective of historical and cultural and personal contexts, developing a substantial understanding of art creation and lifelong appreciation.

    Students in PreK 3 through Grade 5 attend Art Class weekly.

    Physical Education plays a pivotal role in coaching everyone with essential social, emotional, and physical skills that will serve them throughout their lives. Physical Education not only promotes overall health, but also enhances academic performance, emotional well-being, and builds success through goal setting.  My focus and emphasis each day are perseverance, teamwork, and the bolstering of self-confidence through sport skills for all my students.
