The Arts Honor Society recognizes CLPS students who exhibit excellence in the fine arts. Members of the AHS are musicians, artists, or thespians who desire to enjoy the arts with others, serve their community with their artistic skills, and grow as leaders in our school.
Upper school students who participated or are currently participating in at least one upper school fine arts seasonal course (choir, solo and ensemble, drama production, or art club) may join the Arts Honor Society. Areas of Focus
 After the final concert, Sophie Sutton said this about the experience: “It was amazing! I learned so much about my voice and how to use it. Singing with a big group really builds community—I made so many lasting connections. Everyone was so kind and godly, and the Bible studies really impacted how I sang the Scriptures, too. It was absolutely my favorite summer experience!” William Cronin remarked, "It was an absolute blast! I have never connected to other people so quickly as I did here. Everyone I met had a great heart for the Lord." Congratulations to Sophie and William for the remarkable accomplishment! Here is a video of the full concert:  The 2024-2025 fine arts year came to a close with a celebration of our wonderful students! Music and drama students in middle and upper schools received awards and recognition for their hard work and dedication. We also honored 9 graduating drama seniors for their exceptional contributions to the CLPS Drama Company.
 The upper school drama season culminated in a three-show run of the play Pride and Prejudice at Altamesa Church of Christ. This drama production kicked off at the end of February with our first rehearsals of this beloved play. We had a cast of 28 students putting on a full show at 2 hours and 15 minutes, which is the longest non-musical show we have done at CLPS. Students memorized 72 full pages of dialogue. Rosalie Ernest (Elizabeth Bennet) clocked in the most memorization hours of any student! The technical aspect of this show was incredibly complex! We had 4 light technicians, 2 sound technicians, and a large group of cast working all the set changes. With 43 sound cues and extremely detailed light cues occurring between 4 light technicians, as well as set changes every few minutes, this show proved how hard-working our technicians are. They brought our show home beautifully. 
The middle school one-act play cast and crew advanced to the CSAF regional competition on May 6 in Mineral Wells. Their show They Eat Sunshine, Not Zebras competed against four other plays and won the regional championship trophy! Congratulations! Regional Awards
 
 CLPS upper school students competed at the TAPPS Solo and Ensemble competition in February where they performed vocal and instrumental pieces for judges. They did an exemplary job and brought home the highest level awards! Congratulations, students!
Over 50 CLPS students put together a wonderful showcase of skits, ensembles, solos, and musical theater pieces for the Fine Arts Spring Revue on Friday, February 28. This revue featured students from the lower, middle, and upper schools who have been part of the fine arts program through our music and drama courses.
