The fine arts program is designed to meet the needs of students who have varying degrees of interest and capability in visual arts, music, and theatre. Students must earn a minimum of one credit in fine arts as a requirement for graduation. Some courses have a performance component, and students will be required to perform in public. Students who plan to pursue their interest in fine arts should follow the suggested sequence for the fine arts specialization in the Communication, Media, and Arts cluster.
In all fine arts courses, students will gain knowledge of techniques and personal skill development in expression, historical and cultural background, and aesthetic awareness. Students enrolled in an instrumental music course should own or have access to an instrument. Students enrolled in fine arts courses may be required to pay certain fees to maintain the materials and equipment entrusted to them. Students enrolled in classes which have performing components are required to attend all rehearsals as well as school programs and concerts.
