A NOTE FROM THE DIRECTOR
Our Performing Arts staff are committed to the academic success of each student that frequents our rehearsal rooms. This year more than ever, we are focused on the well-rounded student, knowing that they will soon be the young adults of our world who will have influence over their generation and future generations to come. They will become professionals in music, law, education, trades, and so much more. And we firmly believe that their involvement in the Arts is a key to their long term success.
“Music research indicates that music education not only has the benefits of self-expression and enjoyment, but is linked to improved cognitive function, increased language development from an early age, and positive social interaction. Music listening and performance impacts the brain as a whole, stimulating both halves – the analytical brain and the subjective-artistic brain, affecting a child’s overall cognitive development and possibly increasing a child’s overall intellectual capacity more than any other activity affecting the brain’s bilateralism.” This excerpt is taken from the attached article (click to open and read the full article) and supports our theory that as students develop cognitively, the Arts is a major asset for their success.
We are so glad you have chosen to be involved in the Arts. There are so many different facets to what we do, and we would love to explore with you ways for your students to become further involved. As always, we’re here to help.
