Welcome to Art at Olivenhain Pioneer Elementary!

OPE Art is Kinder through 6th grade and focuses primarily on all children having the opportunity to work with all art techniques, as well as, aligning with State, National and grade level standards.  Our goal is to continuously grow and build our Art program to be the BEST it can be.  

Thank you so much to the amazing and hard working OPE PTA, EEF and parents who make this program possible!!  

"A" is for ART

An essential element to our S.T.R.E.A.M focused school!!

S.T.R.E.A.M. (more commonly known as STEM) is an integrated approach to learning. Instead of learning each subject in isolation, students get a deeper understanding of the curriculum through interdisciplinary (across subjects) activities. 

Art is an is important element that crosses all curriculum.  It encourages creativity, embraces different learning styles, and broadens real world knowledge.

"Art has the role in education of helping children become like themselves instead of more like everyone else." Sydney Gurewitz Clemens

"Art is freedom"

"Creativity is intelligence having fun."
