At Tempe Elementary, we believe that arts provide an avenue for students to discover, explore, and refine their talents. The opportunities invite students to step into the spotlight and express themselves in new and interesting ways. 

Performing Arts highlights include:

  • Fees boasts the largest number of performing arts electives in the District, including mariachi, dance, choir, theater, band, and orchestra
  • Middle school orchestra, band, and choir students attend district-wide workshops each year where they receive instruction from guest adjudicators from the Tempe community.
