Arts

Augusta Prep views an arts program as essential, not peripheral, to the curriculum. Lower School students attend visual arts and music classes beginning in preschool and these offerings continue through the Middle School years. Upper School students have an array of elective offerings, including visual, dramatic, and choral arts. We believe that artistic expression facilitates discovery and allows children to communicate their individual thoughts. Through storytelling at a young age and performing arts at an older age, students learn creative dramatics; through set creation and photo design, students learn the art of problem solving; through any artistic expression, students learn empathy, balance, patience, and creative approaches to situations. The arts program is an essential part of our academic curriculum, and we encourage you to visit our online art gallery to view the work of our talented students!
