The Fine Arts Department cultivates creativity through a Christian world-view to foster cognitive and social development as we pursue excellence in artistic expression.

SouthLake Christian Academy values a comprehensive education that includes Fine Arts instruction. The arts offer many developmental benefits, enhancing perceptual, cognitive, affective, and psychomotor learning. We encourage students to engage actively in the arts, fostering their creative abilities and broadening their appreciation for drama, music, and visual arts. Whether they're capturing delicate images through photography or bringing characters to life on stage, our students learn to express themselves artistically. At SouthLake Christian, we believe in providing a holistic education that nurtures the diverse talents and interests of our students. 

Art and music classes are an important part of our curriculum beginning in junior kindergarten and extending through 8th grade. Students attend both art and music classes each week, and they perform in Christmas and end-of-the-year programs. In upper school, students can choose from a variety of Fine Arts electives to meet their graduation requirements.

Upper school students have the opportunity to participate in the yearly drama production, choir, orchestra, concert band, and ACSI Fine Arts competitions. Annually, our high school drama productions showcase musicals like Disney’s Beauty and the Beast, Bye Bye Birdie, The Wizard of Oz, Oklahoma!, Seussical, Sound of Music, Peter Pan, and Willy Wonka.

It is our objective for each SouthLake Christian student to develop an appreciation of the arts throughout all grade levels. We want to encourage students in the discovery and development of their unique, God-given talents and to provide a positive influence for a lifetime.
