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:
- In middle school, students may choose to take one of many performing arts electives offered including band, orchestra, and choir!
- Connolly Middle School students step on the stage and into the spotlight during their annual musical productions.
- Middle school orchestra, band, and choir students attend district-wide workshops each year where they receive instruction from guest adjudicators from the Tempe community.
