The Arts: Create, Improvise, Explore
At Windermere Preparatory School, the Fine, Media, and Performing Arts are an integral part of our culture and our curriculum. The process of creation, improvisation and exploration forms the cornerstone of our philosophy.
Imagine a world void of symphonies, dramatic plays, or watercolor paintings. There are no scientific processes to measure their value, and yet to exclude any one facet of the arts surely is to hinder a student in pursuit of becoming a Renaissance person. Windermere Preparatory School students experience opportunities to evaluate the work and performance of others as well as their own. They evaluate process and technique as well as aesthetic preference. A greater awareness of those pieces deemed worthy of sharing from one generation to the next allows for self-examination and soul searching, bringing resolution to questions of the human heart.
