Fine Arts Magnet Programs

  • Fine Arts Magnet

    Crespo Elementary School students perform scenes from The Lion King.

    Fine arts programs allow students to explore their creative nature through specialized instruction in music, visual arts, theater, dance, writing, and more. Depending on the discipline, there may be growth opportunities for both individual expression and collaboration that build self-esteem and social skills.

    Research has shown that students who apply themselves in the arts perform higher academically, and HISD’s fine arts magnet programs provide a strong core of knowledge.
