CO-CURRICULAR CLASSES
Religion
One of the avenues through which we help students develop good character is through weekly religion classes. This also helps students deepen their spiritual awareness and learn about the Christian faith. Forty Martyrs Armenian Apostolic Church, located adjacent to the school, plays an active role in students’ life. Students attend church services during religious holidays to receive Holy Communion. The Pastor meets with students in church on a monthly basis to guide them spiritually and deepen their understanding of concepts taught in religion class.
​
Arts
Our ultimate purpose in developing various programs in arts education is to help our students discover a love for any kind of art-form, whether it be fine art or performing arts.
Our weekly music classes led by Anahit Khachigian help students prepare for annual programs, and also learn about different musical genres, lyrics, famous composers, singing in harmony, music composition, and more.
​
Our weekly Armenian dance classes offer students an exciting opportunity to learn and experience the vibrant traditional dances of Armenia. Led by Lily Grigorian, students will be introduced to the graceful movements, intricate footwork, and expressive storytelling that are integral to Armenian dance. Throughout the class, students will not only develop physical coordination, balance, and rhythm, but also gain an appreciation for the cultural significance of each dance.

We have revamped our Art Program by partnering with the Great Artist Program with lessons thoughtfully curated to include masterpieces and artists from around the world, from different time periods, and many different art movements.

Physical Education
The physical education program at AGM has recently been revamped with the hiring of a new coach who has been drilling students and working on building their physical endurance and stamina. Nutrition education is incorporated during PE class in order for students to understand the connection between good nutrition and immunity along with promoting a healthy lifestyle.

CodeFu Coding Class
Upper elementary students (4th–6th grade) take part in engaging weekly coding classes led by CodeFu. Through a hands-on, project-based approach, students will design everything from apps and games to personal websites and even program robots to tackle real-world challenges like pollution and overpopulation. Starting with block-based coding, students gradually progress to learning programming languages such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Ruby, and Python. Each session also weaves in essential social and emotional learning themes, encouraging students to embrace their individuality and empowering them to use technology as a force for positive change.
