The arts are a focal point at St. Mary's. With vital programs in both the visual and performing arts, a large percentage of the student body is involved in some continuing arts education outside of the required classes for graduation.
The performing arts program is a crown-jewel in St. Mary's curriculum. Offerings include dance as an alternative to physical education and a course dedicated to studying the genre of American musical theater. Additionally, there are different vocal groups available for singers.
St. Mary's offers four mainstage performance opportunities per year. A dramatic production kicks off the season with a fall dinner theater. A Christmas concert showcases all of the dance, vocal and musical theater groups followed by the spring musical, which runs in late March each year. The Evening of Fine Arts Awards show is the final production and following an "awards show" format, mixes performances by all of the groups with the presentation of the Annual Performing Arts awards.
