Music

Music is included in the curriculum and extracurricular music activies are also offered at St. Mark Lutheran School so students gain an appreciation of praising God through music. Music education improves learning in other subjects because it develops aesthetic awareness and sensitivity. It is a life skill and source of enjoyment which enhances the quality of life from early childhood through adulthood. It provides a means for creativity and self-expression as well as gives a sense of cultural history and church heritage. Through music class, students learn the necessary skills to participate in worship and are given opportunities to do so. "It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to make music to your name, O Most High!" (Psalm 92:1)
