As students progress through these multi-level programs, they work with advanced techniques, encounter more difficult assignments, and move toward self-directed learning. These courses develop the whole student–mind, body, and spirit–as they engage in divergent thinking and creative problem solving in order to foster new connections and leadership opportunities that extend beyond the classroom. The skills developed in these classes prepare students for careers in fields such as advertising, broadcasting, public relations, film-making, graphic design, digital media, marketing, fine art, illustration, choral direction, music, theater, and education.
