PERFORMING ARTS

Meeting the Aesthetic Needs of Our Students. 

​

Instruction in the performing arts occurs in various ways:

​

• Dramatic literature in every English class

• Acting and backstage instruction in an elective drama class

• Production of plays & skits for the school and community

• Production of musical shows usually twice each year

• K-6 students participate in the annual Speech Meet where they learn confidence and public speaking skills.

VISUAL ARTS

Meeting Students' Art Needs.  The arts are a growing area of the curriculum at NCCS. The offerings vary somewhat from year to year to meet the interests and needs of the current students. NCCS requires high school students to take at least 10 units in the visual or performing arts to graduate. In reality, many students take more due to their sincere love and talent that they have developed over the years.

Arts in the Classroom. Elementary students have multiple opportunities in their classes and from supplementary teachers to learn about and practice various arts.

Junior-Senior High Opportunities in the Arts. Courses are offered in the arts at the junior and senior high levels. Junior high students get an introduction to the arts in an enrichment period. High school students get more in-depth experiences in both semester and  year-long courses. Students learn some of the history of their art as well as skills in performance. Instruction culminates in presentations of different types.

MUSIC

Courses are offered in music at the junior and senior high levels: general music and Worship Team.

NCCS requires students to take at least 10 units in the visual or performing arts to graduate.

In reality, some students take more due to their sincere love and talent that they have developed over the years.
