Beginning in early childhood, the arts are integrated into the curriculum through the gentle discovery of drawing, painting, movement, nature, woodworking ceramics, singing and rhythm.

Elementary and junior high school students supplement academic courses with biweekly specialist-led study of art, music and drama. Drawing, print-making, painting, woodworking, computer graphics, ceramics, photography, Orff-Schulwerk, instrumental and vocal music and dramatic arts are a few of the courses available. Many of these classes are headquartered in the school's beautiful arts building and studio workshop, utilizing the growing equipment and technological resources available at the school. Facilities includes a fully functioning recording studio, photography lab and darkroom, weaving and textile workshop, an on-site kiln, and supervised portfolio preparation for art college applicants.

High school students can take advantage of a new, state-of-the-art computer lab to edit and produce videos, compose music and design individual web pages. A full-year elective in digital filmmaking program merges arts and technology as students learn film production and techniques, film history and appreciation, and collaborate on filmmaking projects. Many elect to find artistic inspiration and learning opportunities nationally and internationally. Recent examples include the Art While Enjoying Some of our Majestic Environment (AWESOME) Art Project, which combined art and outdoor education. Students traveled to various California landscapes for overnight adventures and shared their interpretations through photography, sculpture and a gallery exhibit. A recent trip to Italy over spring break offered learning opportunities across the curriculum, which included in-depth study of Italian language, culture and art.
