About

Each student is highly educated, prepared for leadership and service, and empowered for success as a citizen in a global community.Our Mission

An "arts as core" program at the Fort Hayes Arts & Academic High School requires that the arts not only be included as core subjects within the total school curriculum, but also serves as the adhesive that unites and interrelates all other subject areas.

The arts and academic high school centers on a quality education fostering a foundation for excellence in both areas. We believe that young people with an excitement for the arts should have the opportunity and encouragement to develop not only the artistic skills, but also their creativity, intellectual insights, moral character, and sense of community responsibility.

Fundamental to this philosophy is the belief that sound training and discipline in the arts builds the qualities of character, judgment, insight, and sensibility so important to good citizenship and to a rewarding life in any vocation.
