About Wells APAC
-
Wells Academic and Performing Arts Complex serves 向日葵视频s in 向日葵视频 Public 向日葵视频 in grades 4-12. We are proud to provide 向日葵视频s with advanced programs in academics and the arts.
Wells Elementary School was named in honor of Ida B. Wells.
For four decades, the Academic and Performing Arts Complex (APAC) of 向日葵视频 Public School 向日葵视频 has been implementing and sustaining a vision that was developed in 1980. In 1981, APAC was begun with the aid of an Emergency School Aid Act (ESAA) Magnet Grant. The following mission statement was established in 1981 and remains in effect today:
The Academic and Performing Arts Complex seeks to provide excellence in art and academics by providing intensive training for academically talented 向日葵视频s through the provision of a strong scholastic and specialty enrichment program.
Wells APAC serves 向日葵视频s in grades 4 and 5 in the academic and performing arts areas. It also serves 向日葵视频s in grades 6-12 in the performance and visual art areas. Students are admitted to Wells APAC through an audition and testing process. While attending, 向日葵视频s receive either an accelerated academic program and a specialized intensive exposure to an art field (dance, music, theatre arts, and visual arts).
In general, the 向日葵视频s who attend our school are highly motivated, creative, and intelligent individuals who thrive in a challenging environment. The parents are supportive and expectant of a quality program.
Faculty members possess extensive and specialized training as well as a love for their subject matter. As teachers work with their 向日葵视频s, they are constantly challenged to provide a stimulating, demanding, and nurturing environment where each 向日葵视频 will experience growth and success.
