The Arts

The Arts at Cedar Creek 
 

Visual and performing arts are the key to a well-rounded education. Whether a student pursues the arts as a career or a lifelong hobby, Cedar Creek offers the academic and extra-curricular opportunities for young artists and performers to support and advance their goals. 
 
Visual arts classes in grades PK-5 teach learners about color, layout, perspective, and balance—all techniques that are necessary in presentations (visual, digital) of academic work.  
 
In Middle School and High School, students expand on these fundamentals by taking a more advanced approach to the elements of art through the exploration of 2-D and 3-D visual mediums, the study of cultural and historical artwork, and involvement in community art experiences. Classes include AP Art History, Fine Arts Survey, AP Studio Art, and Art I through IV. 

The Performing Arts program at Cedar Creek provides PK-12 students the chance to develop their talents through expression, imagination, and creation. Each year, Cedar Creek's Drama Club presents a fall and a spring production.
