What is Performing Art driven?
Performing Arts are usually considered as stage productions. The Performing Arts Department of Wiley is committed to taking the Performing Arts to new levels. Wiley will be using the Performing Arts as a vehicle to teach, motivate, enhance and discipline students in all subjects areas in their academic environment. This concept will serve as a catalyst toward higher Proficiency test scores. Students who are Performing Art driven have shown that they do better in academic testing.
All Concerts are open to the public and parents are encouraged to attend.
