Fine Arts
Art
In elementary grade art classes, students will explore many different aspects of visual art. Students will let their creativity flow by engaging in activities such as drawing and painting with various materials. They also learn art vocabulary, explore the work of many different artists and art movements, and learn to appreciate art as it enhances our world.
Music
In elementary grade music classes, students will learn and practice the basic fundamental elements of music such as sound, melody, harmony, rhythm, and expression (dynamics, tempo, articulation). Students will engage in singing, playing instruments, responding to music with movement, and connecting with various cultures through music. These classes will help students develop creativity, self-expression, and problem-solving while creating music together as a team. These classes will also provide students with performance opportunities, which will help them develop a sense of ensemble, tolerance, perseverance, and rigor—enabling them to be well-rounded citizens of our global society.

What is Youth At Heart?
GIVING TULSA'S UNDERSERVED YOUTH A PLACE TO GO
- Each afternoon, thousands of Tulsa kids are left alone and unsupervised after the school bell rings. This not only leads to bored kids, but it can also result in poor grades, higher dropout rates, and juvenile crime.
- Youth At Heart is more than an afterschool program. As state and federal support for afterschool programs continue to be cut, Youth At Heart continues to provide programs to help Tulsa's underserved youth cultivate their hidden potential and lead healthy productive lives.
- Together, we can give them a place to go - not just afterschool, but in life
