The high school, through an application process, takes students from all over the Greater Toronto Area. Each year, students of the Arts Unionville program take one AU course per semester. When students reach the end of the program, they receive a certificate recognizing their completion of the program. Students still must have the required credentials in order to receive the Ontario Secondary School Diploma and graduate from high school. Students of the program can expect to perform frequently in the Markham Theatre which was built with the school on a similar architectural theme. They can also expect to have their works of art exhibited in the Markham Theatre and Unionville High school. Students attend exhibitions and participate in occasional field trips out of Canada.

Note: Arts Unionville is one of four schools within the York Region District School Board that offers specialized arts programming of choice.

Famous quotes containing the words arts and/or york:

    “Women hock their jewels and their husbands’ insurance policies to acquire an unaccustomed shade in hair or crêpe de chine. Why then is it that when anyone commits anything novel in the arts he should be always greeted by this same peevish howl of pain and surprise? One is led to suspect that the interest people show in these much talked of commodities, painting, music, and writing, cannot be very deep or very genuine when they so wince under an unexpected impact.”
    —John Dos Passos (1896–1970)

    “I long for a land that does not yet exist, a place where women are valued both for their intellects and their motherhood and where choices between career and nurturing are somehow less stark.”
    —“Where Mothers Matter,” New York Times Magazine (February 20, 1994)
