Welcome to the Central VPA Principal's Corner 

 

Central Visual and Performing Arts High School is a place for families to choose for the chance of a lifetime for their student.  The staff, both academic and artistic, are exceptional in their respective fields.  From previous careers ranging from biochemist to professional photographer, you can expect nothing but the best from the staff at Central.

While being challenged in the classroom, there are many other opportunities to make your child’s high school experience a fantastic one.  We have a nationally competitive Debate team, a chapter of the National Honor Society, a rigorous Advanced Placement program, a strong partnership with COCA, and many other excellent opportunities.

In closing, I strongly encourage you to visit the audition requirements page.  You will find directions towards securing a place for your son or daughter to excel both in the classroom and in their intended art major.  If you are interested in a tour, feel free to contact me to schedule one.  

Fondly,

Dr. Kacy Seals, Principal
