Arts

As image bearers of the one true God, each of us comes hard-wired for creative expression. A Christ-centered education would therefore be hollow without the opportunity to praise him through the different modes of artistic expression. For this reason, we place a high priority on student participation in vocal and instrumental music, drama, and the visual arts.

Visual Arts

Our visual arts program exists to build a strong foundation for students in the areas of creative ideas (art production), historical thought (art history), and analytical reason (art criticism), teaching objective standards of form and beauty which testify to the glory of God.

Music

Music is one of God’s greatest gifts as it enriches all of our lives. In the creation of beautiful music, we have a grand opportunity to imitate and glorify the God who created us, for He is a creative God! We therefore make music instruction at Stillwater Christian School a high priority
in our curriculum.

 

Choir

Students in grades K-3 take general music and may transition to vocal performance in middle and high school. Stillwater has several choir ensembles including a Children’s Choir, a Middle School Choir, and the following high school ensembles: a non-auditioned Concert Choir, a Chamber Choir, and a Women’s Choir. Stillwater Choirs and soloists regularly receive superior ratings at various music festivals in the region.

Band

In grades 4-6, students are exposed to classic band literature while learning to improve their musicianship and technique on their instrument. As students continue, they may elect to participate in the Middle School Band, Pep Band, High School Wind Ensemble, and an auditioned Jazz Band. Stillwater Bands regularly receive superior ratings at various music festivals in the region.
