Fine Arts
Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy has participated in the Cincinnati chapter of the Cappies program for high school theatre since the 2003/2004 school year. CHCA received the "Best Orchestra" award for both the 2004/2005 and 2005/2006 school years, along with many nominations in other categories. The school's Orchestra also played for the Cincinnati Cappies Awards Ceremony in 2006/2007, and in the following year, played Tchaikovsky's original score of his ballet, The Sleeping Princess. This ballet however, was modified so that the school's 'EJO' or Electric Jazz Orchestra, could also take part in it, with a Jazz-inspired second act. The 'EJO" has also traveled nationally and internationally, including trips to Puerto Rico and Kenya for a humanitarian tour.

Famous quotes containing the words fine and/or arts:
“I feel like a white granular mass of amorphous crystals—my formula appears to be isomeric with Spasmotoxin. My aurochloride precipitates into beautiful prismatic needles. My Platinochloride develops octohedron crystals,—with a fine blue florescence. My physiological action is not indifferent. One millionth of a grain injected under the skin of a frog produced instantaneous death accompanied by an orange blossom odor.”
—Lafcadio Hearn (1850–1904)
“The arts are not just instantaneous pleasure—if you don’t like it, the artist is wrong. I belong to the generation which says if you don’t like it, you don’t understand and you ought to find out.”
—John Drummond (b. 1934)
