There are children who would thrive, not just survive in school if they were at Studio9 School of the Arts in Kelowna. Everyone has their unique features and needs. We try to help those students who need our school to be able to be here. YOu can help too. Our project-based, and learning through the arts focussed curriculum brings a huge amount of life and creativity to learning while our students earn their BC high school diploma and graduate with so many more life skills to make them successful in post-secondary education. Through the arts they learn critical thinking, problem-solving, collaboration,  tenacity, confidence and self-esteem. Our students love coming to school to create in their core subjects as well as their art subjects. Most of our graduates receive honours diplomas and usually get their first choice of post-secondary options following careers ranging from sciences to the arts to technical training to trades to businesses to the military to self-employment/entrepreneurship. We are not a school necessarily developing more artists, just helping to create great people. Please give what you can to make someone's life better and future brighter.
