MUSIC, MUSIC, MUSIC

“Music is the language of the spirit. It opens the secret of life bringing peace, abolishing strife.”-Kahlil Gibran

I borrowed this quote from one of my dear friends, Kali King. I feel that it speaks to AGS’s view of music and the important role that it will play in our school day.

We feel that music should be incorporated throughout the day and has a place with everything we do. Much like all other forms of art, music should not be thought of as an enrichment course but woven into all aspects of curriculum organically. Children will be supported and encouraged to express themselves through music and will be provided with many different instruments and materials to do so. Please enjoy the images below that we look to for inspiration.
