Trailside Point is a Performing Arts School
Studies show that students who are involved in the performing arts tend to be better students and achieve better academically. For this reason, Trailside Point has created a number of performing arts classes from which students may choose. More than 50% of our students are involved in a specific performing art class besides general music. Classes offered include: ukulele, choir, percussion ensemble, beginning and advanced guitar, beginning and advanced orchestra, beginning and advanced band, drama, set design and production, Readers Theatre, broadcasting, and speech and debate.
Since implementing the performing arts classes, the school has seen students shine. Students who are otherwise quiet or withdrawn have opened up and gained confidence from being on stage.
