Unleashing Creativity Through Arts at CCHS

There are infinite forms of expression and at CCHS, the student is encouraged to explore his or her own individuality through studies in visual and performing arts. Courses in music, art and performance will provide opportunities for expression and participation. Small classes allow for one-on-one instruction that will boost confidence, poise and self-esteem. All students are encouraged to participate in music ensembles, theater performances and artistic endeavors. The Fine Arts program at Central Catholic High School is developed within the framework of 21st Century Knowledge and Skills developed by the West Virginia Department of Education. The main purpose is to meet each learner at his/her level and provide quality sequential guidance. Each student is encouraged to use their God-given talent to the best of their ability.

Building on this foundation, the Visual & Performing Arts department at CCHS strives to offer a comprehensive arts education that enriches students’ academic experiences and personal growth. By engaging in collaborative projects and performances, students learn to communicate ideas effectively and work together, fostering a sense of community and shared purpose. This hands-on approach not only enhances their artistic abilities but also instills a lifelong appreciation for the arts. As they progress, students have the opportunity to showcase their talents in local and regional exhibitions and performances, gaining recognition and building a portfolio that reflects their refined skills and unique artistic voice.
