Integrated Arts Academy

The Integrated Arts Academy is Vermont’s only PreK-5 public school, where students learn by integrating the four art forms (movement, drama, music, and visual arts) into daily lessons.

Celebrating 17 years of Arts Integration!

As we look back on another incredible school year, we are filled with gratitude for our dedicated educators. Teaching here means more than guiding young minds through math, reading, writing, and social-emotional skills—it means masterfully weaving the arts into daily instruction. It requires immense flexibility, deep collaboration, creative thinking, and rigorous planning. Our teachers truly do it all!

The long-term impact of this dedication speaks for itself. We recently looked at the data of local high school students achieving major milestones, and the lasting influence of an arts-integrated elementary education is undeniable:

Musical Excellence: Out of 11 high school students selected for the VT All-State Music Festival, nearly half are alumni of our school!

Student Journalism: 30% of the high school's student newspaper staff got their start right here in our classrooms.

Leadership Roles: Half of the students currently serving in major high school leadership positions (including student representatives and advisory leaders) are our proud alumni.

If you have been in our building, you have seen the wall of whole school photos. Our current and former students love to find themselves and their teachers in each pic. Recently we were able to add 6 more to the line up thanks to Jeff King for his design know how and properly services for getting them up before the final day of the year.

A huge thank you to our PTO volunteers and IAA students for their hard work planting trees on our playground! 🌳

These new trees will provide much more than beauty as they grow. They will create much-needed shade, offer cozy reading nooks for students to enjoy, and help serve as natural noise barriers around our playground.

We are grateful for the partnership and dedication of our school community in creating an even better outdoor space for our students to learn, play, and connect. Thank you to everyone who helped make this project possible!

We had beautiful weather for our Arts Field Day.  Thanks to all the volunteers and IAA staff who made this happen.
