About Our Program

We offer a programme of specialized courses to artistically talented students interested in Dance, Drama, Music or Visual Arts.

In addition to the arts program, students study required and optional academic courses to earn their secondary school diploma. An audition to determine the appropriateness of this program for each student is held in November for admission to the following September.

A student chooses only one of the four arts in which to audition: Dance, Drama, Music or Visual Arts. Admissions decisions are based on the candidate's talent in her/his chosen art, potential, overall school performance and the student's ability to benefit fully from the program . If the candidate meets the threshold he/she will go into the random selection (lottery) for a spot in the program

There is a yearly Regional Arts Program (RAP) fee required to cover 'Artist in the Classroom', in-house concerts and performances, workshops, master classes, group clinics, professional artists, exhibitions, accompanists for Dance and Music classes, and many more. Other material or field trip fees might apply for some courses.
