Milwaukee Parkside School for the Arts

The high achievement at Milwaukee Parkside School for the Arts is the direct result of the way staff approaches learning along with strong parental support and community involvement. Themes and the arts-integrated approach are used to promote learning in the basic skills of reading, writing, social studies, science, and math. The school offers art, music, physical education, instrumental music lessons (grades 2–8), and ballet (grades 3–5). The school partners with Arts @ Large, Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra, various art museums, Danceworks, First Stage, Mad Hot Ballroom and Tap, Junior Achievement, and the Milwaukee Ballet to create wonderful arts-related experiences for students.
