We have an award-winning School Wide Fine Arts Magnet Program. Every child enrolled at Felix Cook Elementary Pre-K through Fifth Grade is involved in the Fine Arts Magnet Program. Students from Pre-K through Second Grade rotate throughout all Magnet classes, receiving general fine arts appreciation. Students from Third Grade through Fifth Grade can audition and join a specialized Fine Arts area. We offer specialized intense instruction for 3rd – 5th graders in Advanced Dance, Lego-Robotics, Theatre Arts, School Newspaper/Journalism and Advanced Art. We teach integrated Art with a STEAM approach.
