“Sing to Him, Sing praiSe to Him; tell of all HiS wonderful actS” (Psalm 105:2) PCS students love to sing and perform! Under the direction of Mrs. Barbara Allen, students from TK to 6th grade perform in a choral group. Highlights include Grandparent’s Day, Christmas Show and other wonderful events. In addition to choral singing, third through sixth grade students have the opportunity to be a part of our annual Spring Musical. Past productions include The Lion King , Peter Pan, The Wizard of Oz, The Sound Of Music, and many others. The musical is an anticipated event and tickets sell out every year! Theater for junior high includes an elective for “Coffee House Theater”. With oversight from Ms. Leslie Johnson, students learn the craft of theater by using their talent for set design, direction, acting and pre-production planning. Friends and family are invited for an evening of desserts and a student generated performance! “Praise Him with the sounding of the trumpet, praise him with tHe Harp and tHe lyre” (pSalm 150:3) Under the direction of Dr. Gene Chung, instrumental lessons are available to children in kindergarten through the 8th grade.

Performance highlights include playing at a Poem Party, Grandparent’s Day, Christmas Program, Orchestra Concert, ACSI Band/Orchestra/Piano Festival, Orchestra Festival at Disneyland, Graduation as well as several Chapel gatherings. Our instrumental program provides a great foundation in all aspects of life.

Currently, instruction is offered for the following instruments: (lesson availability will vary according to grade level and schedule) Violin Piano Oboe Tuba Drum Viola Ukelele Clarinet Harp Percussion Cello Guitar Trumpet French Horn Glockenspiel Bass Flute Trombone Bassoon “To make artistic designs for work in gold, silver and bronze, to cut and set stones to work in wood and to engage in all kindS of craftS” (exoduS 31: 4,5) All PCS students explore artistic expression in our dedicated art studio. Under the guidance and instruction of Mrs. Heidi Hart, students are inspired by master artists and have the opportunity to experiment with various mediums. The art studio is also utilized to enhance long term projects in the homeroom such as written reports on US States, and Ancient Civilizations. On a regular rotation, elementary students visit the studio in the morning while junior high students are in the space in the afternoons for electives. Junior high electives in the art studio include beginning architecture, film appreciation and photography, cardboard construction, pop art, paper mache and many others. .
