Music Program
~ Page updated for 2024/2025 school year ~
Each grade at Saint Ann School attends classroom music lessons once a week. Curriculum varies grade to grade with the intention of appropriately challenging students. Students are subjected to a large variety of musical compositions, ranging from classical to modern. Fundamentals of music theory and literacy for written music are pivotal parts of the curriculum for all grades, as is the ability to use various instruments to demonstrate comprehension. Instruments used in the classroom promote students’ ability to exercise beat, rhythm, tone, and pitch.
As the Saint Ann School music program progresses, ensembles, such as band, orchestra, will be added. Choir is also available for students in Grades 2 to 8 to perform at weekly school masses. The overall goal of music class at Saint Ann School is to promote a lifelong love for the musical arts through engaging and enjoyable activities.
