All students are required to complete (1) unit in Art or Music. A five-unit sequence in Music may also be obtained by taking three years of a performing ensemble and two years of theory courses. Students are able to participate in two performing ensembles; one instrumental and one vocal. Choruses, Band, and Orchestra meet A/C days for 75 minutes. Additional requirements for these large ensembles include class lessons (40-minute weekly classes rotate throughout the school day) and concerts. Students are excused from lessons to attend announced tests in their other academic classes.
