Fine Arts
The school puts on two major theatrical productions per year: a fall drama and a spring musical produced by the drama department directed by Marcus Riter. The shows are produced on the stage within the gymnasium. There are also 2 major productions done per year by the chorus and honors chorus directed by Dottie Tippet. The final production usually has a set of songs done by the graduating seniors of both classes.
The Marching, Concert, and Symphonic Bands are led by Ryan W. Tinker. The bands have won and placed in many competitions over the past several years, including first place in their division in the 2009 Providence Cup marching band competition under the direction of Mr. Ken Rudd.

Famous quotes related to fine arts:
“Nature predominates over the human will in all works of even the fine arts, in all that respects their material and external circumstances. Nature paints the best part of the picture, carves the best of the statue, builds the best part of the house, and speaks the best part of the oration.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
