Richmond Friends School | Richmond, Indiana

Music, Spanish & Art

RFS students benefit from Spanish, music, and art instruction from the very beginning! Each class (including Trueblood Preschool) has Spanish instruction each week from teacher Rae Hunter who incorporates music, theater, and art into her lessons. Activities range from traditional language education to lessons in culture and traditions.

RFS encourages creativity and expression, and therefore, art and music are popular school subjects! Each teacher helps students explore their creative side while teaching them about art history, technique, and theory. Projects are often tied to study happening within other subjects in the classroom. Music is a part of our weekly schedules and celebrations- we hope you will join us at an upcoming concert! The students love to share their voices with the community.

“We needed an opportunity to give our daughter a healthy environment to grow, and RFS aligns with our values. Lucy has built a lot of confidence and friendships at school, and we love that she gets to interact with younger kids which wouldn't be possible in a traditional school setting.”

"The teachers at RFS are able to give so much attention to individual students, so they don't get lost in the crowd of a large class. I love that Garret feels safe trying things that he may be initially uncomfortable or nervous about."

- The Kirk Family

"Before enrolling here, Tristan struggled with dyslexia, which caused him to fall behind in reading. Thanks to the kind teachers and kids at RFS, Tristan is now reading at grade level and is beginning to enjoy it. He loves coming to school in the morning!"
