Through a college preparatory and liberal arts program, Eleanor Roosevelt High School (ERHS) provides diverse opportunities for students of all levels, interests, and prior experiences to participate in the arts. In their freshman and sophomore years, students select from introductory courses in media and technology, music, drama, and visual arts. In their junior and senior years, students have the option to study in-depth artistic disciplines in small seminars and Advanced Placement (AP) courses. 2023-2024 offerings included Visual Arts I & II, Patterns of the World, AP Art History, Sculpture, Data Science/Display, Digital Photography I & II, Drama, Beginning and Advancing Guitar, Concert Band, Symphonic Band, and Modern Band. Extracurricular opportunities included tech club, Knitting for Need, Art 4 Heart, jazz ensemble, percussion club, and Stargazer Literary and Arts Magazine. Students also regularly showcase their work in school music concerts and art exhibitions. Students leave ERHS with wide set of skills that reach beyond the arts classroom: confidence, criticality, community-building, and visual and music literacy.
