 Arts Program
Beginning in 1998, Centennial Secondary School expanded its existing programs in Art, Music and Drama in accordance with its new mandate as the Regional Centre for the Visual and Performing Arts.
Eligible students who wish to participate in the specialized Arts Program take foundation courses in drama, music and visual art (with the exception of Music Specialists - see below). From grade 10 on, students receive specialized courses in at least two of these areas, while fulfilling the same requirements for graduation as all students in the school. Graduates of the specialized program will be well prepared to enter any major post-secondary program.
With its excellent facilities, its team of specialized staff, and its unique expanded program, Centennial offers the Arts Program applicant an opportunity to work with like-minded students in an exceptionally supportive environment.
The program is intended both for students who are seeking a career in the Arts, and for those whose interest is supplementary to the pursuit of a career in some other field.
