Growth Mindset: Creativity and Imagination
Growth mindset is a quality we value greatly at Clairbourn. We want our students to believe in themselves, be open-minded, be comfortable with uncertainty, show strong awareness and the ability to grow. We believe our well-rounded program will promote a growth mindset in our students. Besides a rigorous academic program, we offer robust art, music, and drama programs to support and develop all aspects of our students.
You can daily find our students busy expanding their creativity and imagination at all grade levels from JPK to eighth grade. Younger children work on dexterity and motor skill development through art. They begin by learning how to hold a brush, make marks and even mix paints with their bare hands. All of those experiences are essential for their school readiness. Older students have weekly art lessons to further their understanding in art, develop technical skills, and expand their curiosity. Students are challenged in various ways. They learn shading and sketching in different mediums to create realistic and abstract art. Students discuss different artists and their composition, values and tints. They are introduced to color theory and the concept of perspective and experiment with ceramics, photography, and much more. It is truly an amazing journey in the world of creativity!
Students sharing their art is also an important component of our program. Besides the art displays around the campus and the art show at the annual Book Fair, students also participate in the annual art exhibit in the spring. They love to discuss their art with their friends and family. We are proud of our students who come to school with an open-mind, eager to learn, and ready to be challenged and grow!
