PolyArts
Celebrating the importance of the arts.
Through our program, Poly students explore the creative process and develop confidence as they express themselves through visual and performing arts.
Supported by a staff of professional artists, students are inspired to act with imagination, discover their creative voices, and engage deeply with the challenges and joys of the artistic process.
A vision
for educating
the artist
We feel students with a love for the arts should be provided plenty of opportunities to pursue their talents.
Visual Arts and Performing Arts combine to provide an exciting array of courses — with a commitment to the hands-on, experiential process of art-making — and wide-ranging extracurricular activities, all of which build skills and encourage students to pursue their artistic interests.
An innovative and personal approach to the making of art
Discover how Poly students are finding their creative voices every day.

US Musical: 9 to 5 (Day 1)
March 7, 2025 • 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
The show is based on the 1980s box office smash and cultural phenomenon starring Dolly Parton, Jane Fonda, and Lily Tomlin. Its award-winning soundtrack won two Grammy Awards. The satirical story follows three women who work in an office—an overworked manager, a scorned wife, and an objectified secretary—who, fed up with the sexist, demeaning workplace culture, team up to overthrow their boss and transform the office into a more empowering and respectful environment. Though the film debuted over 40 years ago, it made a bold statement that resonates into the present, bringing greater attention to the need for equal opportunities for women in the workforce.
Join us for a special weekend performance filled with humor, delight, and powerful dialogue—the qualities we love about this 80s classic—now given a fresh and exciting twist by our talented student actors.
