THE ARTS

The elementary school sets a strong foundation for the Arts as students continue to grow, develop and move into secondary. This is accomplished not only through our strong programming throughout the year but also with outside artists that support student learning. Our art specialists had many opportunities to highlight student work and growth as learners this year. In the fall, all of our students, from our youngest learners in PK3 all the way to grade twelve, shared in a collaborative work effort on a mural project. The mural project encompassed the pride we have as Hilltoppers and allowed for creativity to shine through as students represented important aspects of SJA Jeju and our lives here on Jeju.

Another exciting collaboration between all divisions this year focused on the art of weaving. The passion and love of the art of weaving encouraged all students to create their own designs. This whole school collaboration centered around a special student-driven weaving installation. Weaving is an ancient art, and students are fortuitous to have the opportunity to learn and grow as weavers. This special unit was introduced by our art specialists and culminated with a final installation unveiled during The Festival of the Arts.
