The Richard J. Kinsella Magnet School of Performing Arts provides all students the opportunity to develop their skills through the performing arts. Preschoolers and Kindergarten students utilize Reggio Emilia guiding principles. This philosophy integrates graphic arts as a means to develop a child socially, linguistically and cognitively through a broad variety of hands-on experiences. As the students transition into the upper grades, learning continues through the integration of the performing arts in content areas. All students can experience playing a musical instrument, creation through statecraft arts, and content learning via drama, dance, and movement. This process fosters student problem solving and critical thinking skills, and encourages individual learning so that students arrive at conclusion independently.
