Fine Arts & Performing Arts

Our Vision

The Fine and Performing Arts Department immerses students in the disciplines of art, music, drama, and movement, enabling them to explore both themselves and the world around them through these creative mediums. Our goal is to nurture inventive, thoughtful global citizens who engage with and appreciate the arts both independently and collaboratively, through creation, exploration, and performance. By participating in the arts, students will grow into lifelong learners and active contributors to their communities. We foster the development of critical thinking skills by connecting artistic endeavors with relevant social, cultural, and historical contexts.
