Fine Arts at Kirk Academy is designed to help students not only build technical skills, but also learn discipline and creative problem-solving—abilities that benefit them in any future path. Through musical performances, art exhibitions and competitions, our fine arts program celebrates student achievement and brings our school community together in meaningful and inspiring ways. Our elementary music program has three school-wide performances every year. In the art program students are challenged and exposed to a variety of art media and techniques throughout the year. Our art program competes in the state-wide MAIS Art Competition and hosts a school-wide art exhibition every year.

We are excited to introduce STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) in our elementary school for the 2026–2027 school year. This approach encourages curiosity while helping students build problem-solving skills, creativity, and confidence as they ask questions, explore, and think critically. Through hands-on experiences—such as building simple machines, learning basic coding, and investigating the natural world—students will find learning both engaging and meaningful. With access to innovative tools like robotics and 3D printing, they will be empowered to create and discover in new ways. This interdisciplinary approach fosters essential skills and inspires a lifelong love of learning.

The Junior class of KA visited the Lee Tartt Nature Preserve for their community service project. They learned how the Preserve began and how vital it is to the community. The class was instructed on how to spot and remove invasive plants by James Harris, the LTNP project coordinator. The Juniors jumped right in to help remove these invasive plants from the swamp. A big shoutout to them for putting in the work!

What a great morning at the animal shelter! Students from Kirk Academy’s 7th grade class washed pens, cleaned bowls, picked up trash and fed the animals. They walked dogs, played and got in some sweet cuddles.  The shelter currently has only dogs but we took a variety of food and treats for both cats and dogs to help supply the shelter on into the year. Officer Michael Moore and his wonderful volunteers made us feel so welcome and appreciated. (I didn’t know everyone’s name.) The facility is brand new…donated by the Bissell vaccum cleaner company.  What an incredible blessing it is for the city of Grenada.  It is located right next to the old shelter by the airport. It is fully heated and has air conditioning!

Please join us tomorrow from 10:00-1:00 at the front entrance of our high school for our Team Cate Swab Event in support of Cate, who is bravely battling bone marrow failure. The process is simple- it takes just 5 minutes to swab your cheek and register as a potential bone marrow donor. We are inviting all parents, friends, and community members to come out and help us grow the donor registry. That small act could make a life-saving difference for Cate or someone else.
