Why Enroll at Blair

Blair is both a Fine Arts Academy and is also one of the schools in CFBISD offering Pre-K programming.  

• Fine Arts Academy
  Research shows that Arts Education boosts  performance. It also helps children develop skills such as communication, independence, creativity, and confidence! Students at Blair take Art, Dance, Music, and Theatre. Each class offers unique opportunities for students to succeed, grow, and shine.  There are also opportunities for 3rd, 4th and 5th graders to audition for ensemble groups.  Those ensembles collaborate for additional performances throughout the year.   
• Pre-K Academy
  Taught by our caring, certified educators, students are involved in thematic units that engage learners through developmentally appropriate activities. Mathematics, science, social studies and language arts are integrated to provide students with real life opportunities to read, write, and problem solve. We also support the socio-emotional learning of students so they can build strong healthy relationships with their peers and friends.  Click here to learn more about PreK qualifications, cost and registration.
