Arts at College Prep are creative and invigorating, fostering connections between students from all grades.

The Arts Department offers a range of courses in four disciplines: visual arts, dance, drama, and music. Beginning, intermediate, and advanced courses are offered in each discipline. Entry-level classes introduce each art form through technical skill-building, instruction in basic theory, appreciation, and analysis. Intermediate and advanced classes help students refine their skills and dive deeply into particular areas of interest.

Arts students participate in collaborative, school-wide projects throughout the year, including visual art and chamber music evenings, music concerts, dance showcases, drama productions, and musicals. Students are required to take at least four semesters of art at College Prep, and most choose to take more. Participation in at least two arts disciplines is required.

College Prep students don’t have the word “impossible” in their vocabulary. They are willing to take risks and try anything. We get to throw out the rule book and make something exciting, innovative, and lasting. In class, they respond to each other and to the world in immediate ways, all while laughing hysterically.”
