VISUAL ART, MUSIC, and DRAMA PROGRAMS

COMPREHENSIVE OFFERINGS FOR ALL STUDENTS

Upon entering high school, students will have the opportunity to enroll in one of our many arts classes which satisfy the State of Michigan Visual, Performing, and Applied Arts graduation requirement.

The Plymouth-Canton Educational Park offers students choosing visual art classes a vast array of 2-D and 3-D art classes, from beginning level courses to Advanced Placement Art. The elements and principles of design are taught in the Introduction to Art course, which is a pre-requisite for all other visual art offerings. Both exploratory and career-minded artists will find no shortage of intriguing and challenging opportunities for self-expression in this area.

P-CEP students are also offered a comprehensive listing of opportunities in music. Graded ensemble offerings in band, choir, and orchestra, as well as courses in music theory, guitar, and piano provided opportunities for public performance and personal study. Students electing our school ensembles are able to participate in solo and ensemble and choral, band, and orchestra festivals sponsored by the Michigan School Band and Orchestra Association (MSBOA) and the Michigan School Vocal Music Association (MSVMA). Additionally, extra-curricular opportunities abound, including our nationally recognized P-CEP Marching Band, school musical pit orchestra,  winter guard, pep band, and jazz band, and other small vocal and instrumental ensembles.

In addition to strong programs in art and music, P-CEP offers two comprehensive drama programs. Curricular offerings in drama and speech, as well as our two extra-curricular drama programs - Park Players, housed in Salem HS and performing in the Gloria Logan Auditorium, and Second Stage Players, housed in Canton HS and performing in the Allen DuBois Little Theater - are open to all P-CEP students.
