THE ARTS AT SAINT ANDREW’S The Arts at Saint Andrew’s “If you think your child’s academic studies are more important than the arts, think again.” ~ PLATO As far back as the time of the ancient Greeks, philosophers recognized the inherent value of studying the arts. Theater, music, dance, and the visual arts were seen as integral to Greek society and are still an integral component of our complete, balanced, and inspiring education here. At Saint Andrew’s Episcopal School, every student is enrolled in both studio art and performing art classes, plus the school offers many opportunities for students to express themselves outside of the classroom through choirs and instrumental groups, the spring musical, the Writing Club, and after school enrichment programs. Saint Andrew’s believes that participation in the arts helps students discover and develop their voices and connects us. The arts bring us together. The arts help shape the special wholehearted community that we enjoy here. In the pages that follow, we are excited to share some of the ways that the arts have brought us together this spring with photos of the spring musical, chapel performances, the spring art show, and works from our middle school writing club. 18 S A I N T A N D R E W ’ S M A G A Z I N E T H E C O M M U N I T Y I S S U E
In March, a cast of 47 third—eighth graders presented the story of everyone’s favorite little comic book redhead with two nights of Annie, Jr. performances. Each spring, art teacher Ray Souder organizes an allschool art show featuring student work from throughout the year. While this year’s show was virtual, it still showcased how amazingly creative our students are as they express themselves through painting, drawing, printmaking, and sculpting. From late April through the end of May, the school enjoyed musical performances ranging from prekindergarten presenting their first musical, “The Three Piggy Opera” to the middle school string ensemble performing the “Game of Thrones Title Theme” and everything in between. Recordings of many of these performances are available on the school’s Vimeo channel: www.vimeo.com/saintandrewses or scan this QR code to visit our Vimeo Channel: Finally, for the past two years, the middle school writing club has maintained a blog to share poems, short stories, recipes, crafts, jokes, a science corner, and amazing works of art.
