reative on C developed by :in( tlets drama, music, art , performing arts Everyone needs to be a well rounded person, Mrs. Becky Raleigh, art teacher, said. Academ- ics are important, hut developing a creative side is, too. At Canyon Springs that side could be developed through art, music and drama classes. Two teachers helped students grow in creativity. I consider myself very fortu- nate to be the first art teacher at Canyon Springs, Raleigh said. I got to teach something I love, and I got to work with a lot of gifted students. Raleigh did not know she want- ed to be an art teacher until about five years before coming to Can- yon Springs. Although she had always been an artist, at that time she decided that she wanted to be- come a teacher. Students in the music and dra- ma programs had to work at de cl- oping group disciphne as well as individual creativity. According to Mr. Ken Floras, music and drama teacher, they did so very well. They are a very special group of people, Flores said. Our marching band competed very well against other groups. In choral music, Flores ' stu- dents learned to sing several styles of music, including pop, classical, forties, and fifties. They learned how to sing as a group, he said, and to be musical. Flores had the experience of playing in numerous musicals and plays himself and understood, therefore, their importance to stu- dents. Students at this school care a lot about drama, he said, and they have a lot of responsibility. AN IMPORT.
