PHILOSOPHY
The Performing Arts offer students opportunities to expand and develop their artistic and creative skills. Each discipline within the arts provides its own unique approach to self-expression, communication, intrinsic worth, and emotional exploration through individual and collaborative approaches.
Performing Arts promote personal and social development and enable a lifelong journey of expression, enjoyment, and cultural enrichment. The Arts offer a deeper meaning to every student’s well being.
