Performing Arts

Students receive curriculum Music lessons PK3 - Grade 8, with Music electives for grades 9 and 10. IB Music is an option as part of the IB Diploma program for students who wish to study Music further in High School. We have just started a new program with Grade 4 / 5 learn instruments as part of an Orchestra / Band program. Alongside curriculum Music, ASB offers a wide range of Music activities; Choirs in ES/MS/HS, Concert Band, Music Theory classes and a variety of other musical ensembles. ASB is a host destination for visiting musical groups and professionals to share their expertise with the students. We are a member school of AMIS and participate in Music festivals locally in Spain and in Europe.

"ASB Music School" is a music school, within a school. Students have the opportunity to learn instruments individually with a specialist instrument teacher in place of a curriculum lesson.  Students from ASB give various concerts throughout the year, which parents, students and the community are encouraged to watch.

Drama is taught through extracurricular activities with students being involved in workshops and Theater classes. We have at least two major productions a year with students from Elementary School, Middle School and High School involved. We collaborate with local Theater groups to lead workshops with students.

Movement classes are embedded within the ECC Performing Arts curriculum, aiding students to develop motor skills. All other students have access to Dance either through after-school activities or through links to a local dance studio.
