Fine Arts Department

The District 127 music, theatre, and visual arts courses are designed to help students excel in the fine arts. Each course includes an emphasis on art concepts and principles as well as the application of those principles in making art, whether a theatre piece, a musical composition, or a work of two-dimensional or three-dimensional art. One full credit from any combination of the courses in music, theatre, or visual arts meets the fine arts requirement for graduation.
