Middle School Campus

The arts are a cornerstone of the Red Oaks student experience, inspiring creativity and enriching every aspect of learning. In our arts classes, students immerse themselves in genres, techniques, and concepts, discovering their own unique voices. They learn to transform ideas into reality, overcoming challenges with ingenuity and passion. Through this creative journey, they build confidence, explore their connections to the world, and express their ever-evolving perspectives.

But the arts at Red Oaks don’t stop in the studio or on stage— they flow seamlessly into our academic curriculum. Whether designing posters to illustrate current events, composing songs to illuminate scientific principles, or stepping into the shoes of historical figures through role-play, students experience the transformative power of interdisciplinary learning. These connections deepen understanding and foster a vibrant, collaborative school culture.

Our strong and caring community makes all of this possible. Thanks to your generous support, our arts program and performance opportunities continue to thrive and grow. Together, we are nurturing a generation of creative thinkers and compassionate leaders. We are truly grateful to have you as part of The Red Oaks School.

“THE RED OAKS SONG”

WORDS AND MUSIC BY TIM WATERS

Classrooms filled with the joyful noise

Of laughing, learning girls and boys

Imaginations lead the way

Discovering new things everyday

A kind and caring community

Welcomes you, welcomes me

Where minds expand and spirits soar

Where you’ll always find an open door

And someone to greet you and guide you through The Red Oaks School, we sing our song for you

Students becoming teachers too

Sharing what they’ve learned to do

Responsible global citizens

Everyone helps, everyone wins

A kind and caring community

Welcomes you, welcomes me

Where minds expand and spirits soar

Where you’ll always find an open door

And someone to greet you and guide you through The Red Oaks School, we sing our song for you
