Hollywood High Performing Arts Center

The Hollywood Performing Arts Center enables its students to study the arts and to realize the value of the role that the arts play in the human experience. Students acquire and extend their knowledge, develop their potential for lifelong amateur or professional endeavors in the arts. Students recognize the arts as an essential part of the curriculum and as an important component in the enrichment of their lives.

Hollywood High Performing Arts curricula include dance, drama, technical theatre, vocal, and film/digital graphics. Classes are planned to address the broad range of individual differences, talents, and interests of all high school students and provide balance and enrichment to the total program. The development of unique intellectual, physical, social and emotional response through both verbal and nonverbal communication is reflected in the curriculum.

The performing arts curricula are systematic and are articulated through the grade levels 9 to 12. They include aesthetic perception creative expression, historical and cultural heritage, and esthetic valuing. These are the fundamental components upon which all instruction in the arts is based.
