The Castaic Union School District is an Arts Integration school district.  We believe that exposing students to the Arts is a vital part of educating the whole child.  Art improves the development of motor skills, language skills, social skills, decision-making, risk-taking, and inventiveness, as well as math and literacy (through theater and dance).  Art helps children tap into their emotions and teaches them how to express them in healthy and positive ways.  In addition, Art education connects students with their own culture as well as with the wider world; we believe this is critical when preparing our students to be leaders, to do well in the workplace, and to be better citizens.
