Outside areas for instruction include courtyards with picnic tables, a fish pond, and two gazebos. The school is bordered by two fully equipped, fenced play areas, with gardens for butterflies, hummingbirds and native plants of Mississippi. The instructional program also includes arts-integrated thematic units which reinforce the content and skills taught in the major subject areas.
