24 April 2025

We are so proud of our students for their amazing performances.

Young artists from across CPS took center stage this week. Now in its third year, the RE•VER•BER•ATE arts festival allowed hundreds of students to showcase their talent in every arts discipline, from dance and music to theatre and visual arts.

Partnering with the Chicago Cultural Center and the Design Museum of Chicago, RE•VER•BER•ATE serves as a testament to what happens when students, teachers, and arts professionals come together to create a truly unique event for CPS artists. It is part of the District’s broader vision for a robust and joyful daily student learning experience, and CPS continues to prioritize expanding student access to the arts. 

We had a wonderful time checking out the diverse performances that make RE•VER•BER•ATE so special. Check out some highlights below!
