Your elementary aged child has the opportunity to learn in dedicated music and art spaces on every campus. Through participation in campus, district, and community events and initiatives, elementary students have a wide range of opportunities to perform, see their work displayed, and experience art like no other in East Texas.

Your art-loving middle school child will have the opportunity to compete at district, regional, and state levels as well as have their art on display at places such as the Tyler Museum of Art, Gallery Main Street, or even the Texas Capitol!

We pride ourselves on being the region's leading award-producing performance district.

Additionally, the financial cost to families with a child participating in performing arts can be minimal. Many instruments and supplies are provided by the campus at little or no cost.

See the benefits of a research-based art integration curriculum where students learn the six art forms (dance, drama, digital, instruments, vocals, and visual arts) and advanced core content (math, science, reading, and social studies) simultaneously. The A-rated campus offers numerous fine arts electives and more than 30 productions a year.

Caldwell is one of two schools nationally to receive the Arts School Network Arts Integration School Award (2021) and one of four schools in the nation to be named a 2022 Schools Transforming Learning Designated Campus by the N2 Learning Principals' Institute.

Our program submerges your child into focused and rigorous classes, including Advanced Placement Art, Studio Art, Design, and Drawing to develop their skills at a deeper level.

Students interested in the practical experience of art can create portfolios equivalent to most common college foundation courses. These will demonstrate their artistic skills and ideas they have developed, refined, and applied over the course of the year.

Having two sweepstakes-winning high school bands is not an easy feat, but we've accomplished it! Joining either of our comprehensive high school bands will allow your child to acquire musical perception and creative expression/performance, obtain historical/cultural heritage and develop individual and ensemble skills.

Additionally, they will have the opportunity and experience to perform not only in traditional high school settings like football games but also in marching contests and concerts across the state.

The choir for high school students is nothing short of exceptional.

Your child will have the opportunity to develop their individual and group skills, music reading ability, and participate in many TMEA (Texas Music Educators Association) and UIL competitions.

Whether your child wants to learn basic dance styles like Jazz, Ballet, Modern, Folk, Tap, Choreography, and Production, or prepare themselves for a more competitive atmosphere, dance at Tyler ISD is sure to prepare them.

From basic dance concepts to winning state competitions, each comprehensive high school dance program ensures success.

When your child chooses to participate in orchestra we have plenty of options to choose from.

From Beginning Orchestra, which includes classical, Pop, and ethnic styles, to Concert, Philharmonic, Chamber, or Symphony orchestra, your child will have the opportunity to perform among some of the nation's most renowned musicians, experiencing orchestra like never before.

Great productions can only come from great Theater programs.

When your child attends Tyler Legacy or Tyler High they will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in a workshop atmosphere that includes production, leadership training, individual development, stage management, technical theater projects, acting styles, and character analysis development.
