"I was a student there back between 1978 - 1981. They taught us to open our minds and free our creativity. We were taught to problem solve in ways I have yet to see taught in most other public schools. Oh yes. Please note that this school is free of charge. The specialized education we had was free. I realize this is a historical report and my views may be distorted. A specific memory, for example, was of a project we had for music class in the 5th grade. We were individually assigned to a section of the large junk gamelan occupying half of the music room, to compose an original piece of music. This composition was to be notated using a notation of our own invention. We were not allowed to use the symbols we see in music manuscripts, including: notes, clefs, key signatures, staves, time signatures. Each student invented their own unique written visual communication to convey their musical ideas. We were only 10 years old. I still have my original composition and am impressed with how advanced it was compared to what my young nieces and nephews are doing in present day 2013."

"What a wonderful place to be a child. I believe in educating the whole child and this is what they do at Fine Arts. Children learn to have a voice at this wonderful school. There is a lot of parent involvement there. The student body and families are really a community. We have been very happy with this school."
