Our arts-themed college preparatory high school is where creativity and academic rigor come together to prepare students for success. Our dynamic curriculum encourages students to explore a wide range of artistic and intellectual disciplines. Students develop critical thinking and communication skills by investigating real-world issues, crafting well-supported arguments, and presenting their ideas with confidence. They engage deeply with both nonfiction and creative storytelling, gaining hands-on experience in visual arts, digital design, & performance, while building impressive portfolios that showcase their talents. Students and families can choose from three admissions options: Visual Arts, Theater Arts, and Capstone, allowing them to tailor their educational experience to their passions and goals. Beyond the classroom, our supportive advisory program & comprehensive secondary school experience help students navigate their academic and personal growth. We provide individualized support throughout the college application process, guiding each student and family to find the best fit and successfully transition to higher education. Students also benefit from work-based learning, career-connected learning, and exploration opportunities that prepare them for future careers in the arts and beyond. We offer exciting experiences such as internships, a Fall Play, and a Spring Musical, allowing students to apply their skills in real-world settings & showcase their creativity. Our annual lower house trips include a retreat to Fairview Lake, fostering community and reflection, & a cultural exploration of museums in Washington, D.C. Join us to unlock your creativity, develop essential skills, and become part of a vibrant community dedicated to artistic & academic excellence.
