Colorado’s education leaders understand this which is why October 1st is Count Day – the day all public school districts in the state report the number of students enrolled. That means it’s not too late to join us at Parker Performing Arts School (PPA), the only public charter arts-focused K-8 school in Douglas County.
Make the Change Now
Our middle school is full, but if your elementary school-aged child has expressed an interest in a different type of learning experience, we have a spot for them at PPA where every student spends ½ the day exploring the arts.
PPA is a creative school for creative kids. By blending academics with art, we offer an artistic approach to learning with added benefits.
“Arts-learning experiences benefit students in terms of reductions in disciplinary infractions, increases in compassion for others and improvements in writing achievement. Furthermore, arts-education experiences improve school engagement
and college aspirations.”
- Houston Education Research Consortium
From academic homerooms where students work on math and literacy in a blended, one-to-one, technology-supported environment to arts space where they practice the four artistic disciplines of music, musical theater/dance, tumbling/movement and visual arts our elementary kids are developing skills all day long in a no-risk environment that encourages them to give all forms of creative expression a try. (No audition is required to attend PPA.)
It's an Easy Adjustment
PPA is a welcoming environment where friendships grow. Our Kindness Crew helps every student feel accepted and respected. Our teachers, staff, and Parent Community Association will make the transition easy for everyone in the family. We’ll help students catch up with work they may have missed during the opening weeks so they’ll get on track quickly. And we’ll answer all your questions, too!
There are only a few weeks left before Count Day. Contact us now to enroll in the PPA elementary school before it’s too late.
