Performing Arts Princeton music students have an opportunity to be part of a program that has received state and national recognition for excellence. Whether in the classroom, the marching field, the concert or theatre stage, or the arena of competition, our students experience what for many is the high point of their musical lives. Beginning in kindergarten, all Princeton students receive instruction from a qualified music educator. Music classes are part of the regular elementary school schedule and follow a standardsbased curriculum. Middle School provides the opportunity to begin instrumental music study and many students become part of band, orchestra, choral, or jazz performance ensembles. A wide variety of musical options are available at the high school as well, with Marching Band, three concert bands, two orchestras, four choirs, and two jazz ensembles being offered during the school day. Additionally, non-performance music classes are offered at the Middle School and High School, including General Music, Piano Lab, Guitar, and International Baccalaureate Music. Princeton music organizations have a rich history of performance excellence. Our bands, orchestras, and choirs have consistently received superior ratings at OMEA adjudicated events. Princeton ensembles have appeared in locations throughout the country. Princeton bands, orchestras, and choirs have performed in such diverse locations as Orlando, Washington D.C., Salt Lake City, and Honolulu. Princeton students have received individual recognition as well, having been selected for such prestigious organizations as Cincinnati Junior Strings, Cincinnati Symphony Youth Orchestra, District 14 Honor Band, May Festival Youth Chorus, and All-State Ensembles.
Join the Music Boosters! Get involved, stay informed, and be part of the FUN! Join us now as we start planning for 2022-2023.
Congratulations! The NAMM Foundation has recognized your community for the outstanding efforts of teachers, administrators, parents, students and community leaders who are making music part of a well-rounded education for every child in their communities. We salute the commitment of your community, so every child can learn and grow with music.
Princeton was named Best Communities for Music Education again, for 2022! We were also named the Tri-M Chapter of the Year for Ohio!

Kids who are involved in the arts are: • 4 times more likely to be recognized for academic achievement • 3 times more likely to be elected to class office within their schools • 4 times more likely to participate in a math and science fair • 3 times more likely to win an award for school attendance
In honor of the National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts holding its annual conference in Cincinnati this week, we would like to invite all guests to create a mini sculpture to take home. Crayola Model Magic and a variety of other materials will be provided for exploration.

The Visual Arts Grades K - 12 The elementary students’ art exhibit represents exploration and development of skill in applying the elements and principles of design: “the language of art.” A variety of materials and processes are used in projects as students demonstrate their understanding of art history, various cultures, the styles of famous artists, and as they express their personal experience and understanding of the world. Students discover the relationship between art and other areas of Princeton’s curriculum as they develop their visual communication skills.
