Seventh and eighth grade students may elect to take visual and performing arts electives as part of a related arts cycle. Instruction is implemented by a certificated art or music teacher at all grade levels. Art at grades kindergarten through six follow an interdisciplinary approach.

Enjoy the highlights in the above video clip from the ETSD Eyes on Art Show that was held in the spring of 2023 at the Municipal Building.

Other themes throughout the show included nature, portraits, still life, design, fantasy, multicultural and animals. The show opened on May 22nd with a Gala Reception that featured art presentations and music accompaniments from the MMS band, DMS orchestra, and DMS chorus.
