What is ABC?

Have you ever noticed this logo around our school?

Round Top Elementary has been an ABC site since 2005. ABC stands for Arts in Basic Curriculum. The AbC Project provides leadership to achieve quality, comprehensive arts education (dance, music, media arts, theatre, visual arts and creative writing) for all students in South Carolina. The ABC Project is cooperatively directed by the South Carolina Arts Commission, the South Carolina.Department of Education and the College of Visual and Performing Arts at Winthrop University.
As an ABC site we have a 5-year Strategic Arts Plan to continually improve arts education for students, our school. W e receive grant money for the arts that is matched by our school, and we have a Strategic Planning Committee that oversees the implementation and progress of our Strategic Arts Plan. Our committee is composed of teachers, administrators, parents, a community members and students.

We had a wonderful meeting last Monday afternoon and are thankful for our amazing committee! Meet the students on our committee and some snippets from our meeting
