Arts Integration. Arts Pathways. Academic Excellence. Arkansas Arts Academy

Arkansas Arts Academy strives to develop students into well rounded, confident, creative and curious individuals. AAA believes that the visual and performing arts provide opportunities for ALL students, PreK-12,  to feel valuable and successful in an area that provides them with positive self expression and a sense of identity. By infusing the arts into content curriculum, students are able to make real world connections and discover new ways to think about arts, cultures and creativity. AAA utilizes foundational pedagogy that prepares students academically while developing visionary leaders.

We believe: 

  • an arts-based approach to learning promotes creative expression and enhanced academic experiences.

  • innovative K-12 arts integration promotes higher levels of critical thinking.

  • students thrive when provided hands-on learning enrichment through our many community and museum partners. 

  • arts integration encourages heightened academic achievement, increased creativity and differentiated learning opportunities.

  • students retain academic knowledge when they are provided with highly engaging opportunities to experience learning, create within the learning, explore learning option and demonstrate what they know.
