“These aspiring fine arts students are a testament that their hard work and creativity in the arts does pay off,” says Damon Archer, Executive Director of Fine Arts. “I would also like to applaud the fine arts teachers who provided a supportive learning environment and inspire these students to continue honing their skills at the next level.”

These are Perception, Creative Expression and Performance, Historical and Cultural Heritage, and Critical Response and Evaluation. Each curriculum is set by grade level and ensures proper “layering” of skills that follow the students’ development in their chosen fine arts field.
