Performing Arts

At Tempe Elementary, we believe that arts provide an avenue for students to discover, explore, and refine their talents. The opportunities invite students to step into the spotlight and express themselves in new and interesting ways. 

Performing Arts highlights include:

  • General Music is offered for all students from kindergarten through 4th grade
  • 5th graders take ownership of their arts education, choosing between Band, Orchestra or Choir as an elective
  • In middle school, students may choose to take one of many performing arts electives offered including choir, band, and orchestra.
  • Middle school orchestra, band, and choir students attend district-wide workshops each year where they receive instruction from guest adjudicators from the Tempe community.
