My child wants to participate in the drama production but can’t make the rehearsals. PDF Print E-mail
No athletic coaches I know would let a child play in a game they hadn’t been to practice for. Most will have to sit out and watch until they can attend practices regularly. Again, the arts have been so devalued for so long, we now think that it’s "child’s play"(pun intended!) to put on a production and anyone can do it. The real answer is... yes, it’s a problem! The arts take work and lots and lots of practice. If we expect the children to gain a full appreciation for the arts, they need to learn early that it is not something to be trifled with, but rather it is something to take seriously and work hard for.

Many of the drama teachers in our program have instituted a policy that if children do not have their lines memorized by a certain date their parts will be given to another. Please be aware of this policy up front so that you know what you are committing to by enrolling your child in the drama elective. It takes work, time and commitment to make the programs run well and we hope you will encourage that in your children along the way.

The Master's Academy of Fine arts is a homeschool fine arts school where students taught from a historical perspective. The Master's Academy focuses on teaching music, art, drama, and history through six distinct historical periods. These include: ancient, medeival-renaissance, baroque, classical, and romantic. The children are exposed to choir, plays, drawing, painting, music theory, dance, and art history. We are committed to providing a homeschool art program that encourages children to Glorify God through excellence in the arts. Many of our homeschool art students have received large scholarships to universities based soley on their portfolio work completed at Master's Academy of Fine Arts. We understand the importance that the arts play in our culutre, and desire for every homeschool art student to learn about the arts through a God centered historical perspective. Our well rounded homeschool art program centers on Christ, by teaching our students not just the techniques, but also a historical worldview that shows them the importance of using their art to glorify God.
