Arts
KVHS is known in New Brunswick for their success at the New Brunswick Drama festival every year. The Theater program was started by the original principal, because he knew that a great school has to be a well rounded school. from 1977 until 2010 Suzanne Doyle-Yerxa ran the theater program at the school before her retirement in June 2010. That year, a scholarship award was commemorated under her name: The Suzanne Doyle-Yerxa award. It is given to a student that plans on going into the performing arts or creative arts as a post secondary study.

Famous quotes containing the word arts:
“Remove idleness from the world and soon the arts of Cupid would perish.”
—François Rabelais (1494–1553)
“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 too have arts and sorceries;
Illusion dwells forever with the wave.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
