Arts

Art

Keeley's Art program includes projects introducing art mediums like painting, printmaking, sculpture and ceramics. Students engage in two-dimensional and digital art. These art projects will encourage global and cultural awareness.

Art is not what you see, but what you make others see. 

Glory black history art show

Music

Music education at Keeley includes several learning concepts such as singing, playing instruments, reading music, creating music (with and without musical software), as well as sharing music with community through performance. Our music students learn about music from other cultures and other time periods. Most of all, students develop a passion for music that will stay with them throughout their lifetime.

Music is a piece of art that goes in the ears, straight to the heart.

The Honor Choir at Keeley consists of fourth and fifth grade students who are chosen because of their musical talent as well as their outstanding behavior and leadership ability. The choir performs at many functions and competitions throughout the school year.
