AISA STATE ART SHOW

The following students represented Lee-Scott Academy at the AISA State Art Show held on May 11, 2021 in Montgomery and received state awards for their artwork:

Danielle Bruce - 1st Place K – 1, Printmaking

Alice Anne Cumbie - 1st Place K -1, Drawing Non-Color

Laura Lee Moore 1st Place and Best of Show K – 1, 3D

At Lee-Scott Academy, we believe the arts are an integral part of our mission to develop well-rounded students. Research over the past several decades supports the significance of fine arts education curriculum in encouraging the development of higher order thinking skills such as creativity, problem-solving, effective communication, self-discipline and critical thinking.

While COVID-19 affected many of the regular performances of our fine arts program, the department had an award-winning year in 2020-2021 and our artists, musicians, and performers adapted to the changes that had to be made.

Thank you to the parents, directors, administration, faculty, and staff for their continued support of our students and our program.
