About us
Earl Haig Secondary School opened its doors to the Claude Watson Arts Program in 1982. This program is designed to serve students possessing artistic talents within a specialized learning environment. Though a challenging dual thrust program, our students develop their creative and academic potential to the fullest.
Our main goals
- To provide a unique program where students pursue learning paths under the guidance of enthusiastic teachers with arts specialty training.
- To encourage the development of skills for everyday life -communication, cooperation, sharing, and self-discipline.
- To provide educational enrichment that focuses on the classical and contemporary arts through the study and application of concepts, skills, theory and performance. Guest artists, professional performances and field trips all contribute to the students’ appreciation and dedication to learning.
- To encourage students to apply their knowledge and awareness in the pursuit of lifelong enjoyment and contribution to the Arts.
