MUSICAL ARTS
The Musical Arts program is an integral part of our community at Walsingham. With opportunities for continued learning and greater understanding of the study of music for students from Prekindergarten through Graduation, our students are able to have amazing experiences, such as performing for the Pope and at the Olympics.
Prekindergarten
Students in their first year at Walsingham engage daily in musical experiences as singing, dancing, and playing instruments. Pre-kindergartners perform as a group periodically for their parents and other students, culminating in their performance in the chapel each spring.
Lower School
Students in Kindergarten through 4th grade attend music class once a week as part of their regular schedule. In 5th grade, all students participate in the Beginning Band program, which introduces them to instrumental music. As they progress into 6th and 7th grade, students can choose music electives, including band and choir, allowing them to further develop their musical interests and skills. Throughout grades K–7, students participate in two performances each year, showcasing their progress and talents to the school community.
Upper School
Students in grades 8-12 have the option of participating in the Upper School Band or the Madrigals (chorus) with each having multiple performances annually.
