Fine Arts Scholarship Information 

Our current world-wide situation continues to alter many of our plans and interests. As a result, the district has cancelled all summer programs including Artistically Gifted and Talented programs. Many of our students have been looking forward to learning and participating in the events that interest them the most. My hope is that we will be able to tap into that talent again as we restructure our learning environments. Any students that had applied for summer fine arts scholarships (or were intending to), are being informed that these events have been cancelled. At this point, we are not offering alternatives or virtual opportunities to replace any of the camps. Thanks, so much for understanding and please continue to stay well.
