A+ Schools of North Carolina

Sylvan Elementary is an A+ School, an active member of A+ Schools of North Carolina. As an A+ School, we provide students with an engaging, creative learning environment in which the arts provide a catalyst for learning across disciplines.

A+ Schools of North Carolina is a whole-school transformation initiative that views the arts as fundamental to teaching and learning in all subjects. A+ Schools combine arts integration, arts education and arts exposure, offering children opportunities to develop creative, innovative ways of thinking, learning and showing what they know. In A+ Schools, teaching the state’s mandated curriculum involves a collaborative, many-disciplined approach, with the arts continuously woven into every aspect of a child’s learning.
