The Fine Arts Department’s mission is to create a lifelong appreciation and involvement in the visual and performing arts by providing experiences, study and inspiration to our students. As students learn to convey human expression in its many artistic forms, they will come to a greater understanding of the skill and craft necessary to create and appreciate the impact art can have on their world. We offer a variety of courses in this department with the hope that the spark of creativity will come alive in each student.

We offer over 60 clubs and have 10 honor societies. https://www.smrhs.org/studentlife/clubs
