The Vital Role of Art & Music in Shaping Well-Rounded Students

LCCA Offers: Theater, Band, Orchestra, and Choir

Rooted in the Hillsdale K-12 curriculum, Lake Country Classical Academy (LCCA) champions the classical ideals of truth, goodness, and beauty through its robust fine arts program, seamlessly integrated with core academic subjects. This approach reflects the classical tradition of forming well-rounded individuals who seek wisdom, virtue, and aesthetic excellence. From kindergarten through 12th grade, students will engage in the arts to hone technical skills, cultivate an appreciation for transcendent beauty, and connect with the rich cultural heritage that embodies timeless truths.

In the early grades, students will explore foundational concepts in visual arts and music, igniting creativity and fostering expressive freedom. Through drawing, painting, and singing, they encounter the joy of creation and the harmony of ordered beauty. As they advance, the curriculum deepens, guiding students through art history, music theory, and performance. These studies reveal the profound interplay of truth and beauty in masterpieces of Western civilization, from the soaring melodies of Bach to the luminous canvases of Raphael. By engaging with works that reflect moral clarity and natural order, students develop not only artistic discernment but also the moral character and civic virtue central to LCCA’s mission.

LCCA’s fine arts program, including theater, band, orchestra, and choir, invites students to participate in the pursuit of goodness through collaborative creation and performance. This program enables students to learn discipline, humility, and the power of art to uplift and inspire. This holistic integration of fine arts into LCCA’s content-rich curriculum underscores our commitment to nurturing students who are not only academically accomplished but also culturally enriched and morally grounded, equipped to reflect truth, goodness, and beauty in their lives and communities.
