CHEER FOR THE ARTS

It is well known that receiving an education in the arts stimulates a student’s imagination, and improves their cognitive and problemsolving skills. But what the arts teaches all of us as we cheer and celebrate our performers and artists at Newman is growth. The skills that come out of an arts education can be applied to any career path and are a key component to educating the ‘whole child.’

“The arts at Cardinal Newman allows for students to connect with their creativity and explore different sides of themselves. Studying art, dance, theatre and visual arts gives students a place to shine outside of sports and academics.”

Ms. Hayden-TownPerforming Arts Teacher

Our Newman students thrive in dance, dramatic arts, digital media, graphic design, fine arts and music.

As We Profile Dramatic Arts

The Cardinal Newman Dramatic Arts program prepares students interested in the production of theatre. Students explore all areas of theatre production including history, costumes, set construction, lighting and improvisation. All of this work culminates with two performances a year - and this fall our students proudly presented Bad Auditions by

As We Profile Music

Our Modern Band program at Newman is one of a kind. Our musicians wowed our Eighth grade guests at the 2022 Newman Preview Day with a performance of songs that everyone knows and can sing along to - we like to refer to it as our Newman School of Rock.

Bad Actors, a comedy that tells the story of Carol Danes, a young woman, who- for her directing debut- must pull together a production of Romeo and Juliet to save her beloved community theater from ruin.

Bravo to our students who showcased their talents (not to mention comedic skills) with this great production.
