Campus Features

Arthur’s campus features three separate courtyards for recreation and a community garden. Mural Arts partnered with the school to create nature-themed murals in the courtyards. The children enjoyed participating in the artistic process, and continue to benefit from the beauty of the murals as they play and learn in the courtyard spaces.

Arthur also boasts a technology lab and a science lab which enhance the educational experience for students.
