Spring Arts Day

Spring Arts Day is an all-school competition in the fine arts. Art and writing categories include writing, drawing, painting, and program cover design. Performance categories include drama, readings, poetry, instrumental music, and vocal music.

Faculty leader J. D. Smucker says, "The emphasis is on trying and through the experience possibly become more involved in the arts at school, at church, or in the community. And at times when students are less than perfect in their performance, their peers (the audience) applaud, affirm, and encourage in a way that is life giving."
