SUPPORT OUR PERFORMING ARTS STUDIO
St. Joseph Hill Academy is dedicated to the holistic education of all students. This includes providing our students with the opportunity to participate in the Performing Arts. In addition to positively impacting academics, it has been shown that performing arts education helps students to discover their own voice, grow in confidence, develop empathy and increase ethical insight. Among the skills students will acquire are: creativity, confidence, problem solving, and perseverance. The Performing Arts has always maintained an active presence in both the High School and the Elementary School at St. Joseph Hill Academy. As our programs continue to grow, so did the need to construct a professional Performing Arts Studio! Hill’s new Performing Arts studio has been designed to be state of the art. We are pleased that we were able to redo the floors and ceiling, renovate two bathrooms, install full wall mirrors; and mount lighted, mirrored makeup and hair stations. We now have storage cubbies for the students to keep their belongings, racks for costumes and a closet for props. The renovations also included the installation of new air-conditioning and heating and a new water fountain. St. Joseph Hill Academy is currently accepting donations for our Performing Arts studio, and we invite you to consider supporting this highly valued new addition to our school. To donate, please visit www.stjosephhillacademy.com/donate/ and select Performing Arts Studio in the dropdown menu.
