Whitefield's Fine Arts program encourages students to develop artistic skills to reach their full God-given creative potential and build the confidence to express themselves.
A wealth of art, music, and theatre opportunities are offered in and outside of the classroom. Whitefield's visual arts, instrumental, chorus, and drama programs have earned a
reputation for excellence which is reflected in the recognition of awards our students receive, the age-appropriate and challenging curriculum, and the highly-qualified faculty
and staff.
Whitefield students explore many techniques to express their individual creativity. Whether gaining insight from guest speakers and lecturers, taking field trips to the High Museum
of Art, or creating their own works of art, students in the Lower, Middle and Upper schools develop imaginative thinking and creative problem-solving skills which are ultimately
important in every phase of life. A study of the arts brings a deeper understanding of our history, culture, and the human condition.
Most importantly, Whitefield students learn these skills in the context of a Christian environment with teachers dedicated to developing not only their artistic talents, but their
spiritual dimension as well. Teachers are committed to helping students understand their Christian faith, develop Christian principles, and use their talents to express love for
God and for others.
Unfortunately, public school districts continue to struggle with the importance of arts in education. While some schools are cutting programs or making them optional after-school
programs, Whitefield Academy has solidified its valued arts program and continues to grow and perfect its offerings.
I encourage you to peruse our Arts section on the website to learn more about the program at Whitefield, which includes information on our course offerings and our educators.
As one of those educators, I want you to know that it is my privilege and my joy to teach your sons and daughters.
