Primary – Transitional Kindergarten – Grade 2
Intermediate – Grades 3-5
Special Artist - All grades welcome *
*Students who identify as having a disability and may receive services under IDEA or ADA: Section 504 may enter in the Special Artist Division or grade division most closely aligned to their functional abilities.
