School of the Arts mission motto-
OUR MISSION IS STUDENT SUCCESS... ACADEMIC, ARTISTIC, AND HUMANISTIC.
Has School of the Arts achieved these mission? Well I think that we are more academically successful than a great majority of other city schools. We definitely have an artistic advantage because we are an art school. Our art is an actual grade and something that could actually hold you back from graduating which is definitely not like other schools where an art or music class is just an extracurricular class or an elective; but does SOTA achieve humanistic success? I think not.
Humanism is when different aspects of humans, such as interests and values, are looked as the center of life. But a lot of students at SOTA don't respect this idea. Students here at SOTA don't respect others because they do not fit into the norm and at an art there are a lot of people who look different because they are so creative and they incorporate these "unique" ideas into their appearance. Students also have to learn how to repsect other's beliefs and try not to belittle someone's faith. Another essential thing that SOTA students (and even some teachers) need to respect because it is ever so evident at here is homosexuality. It's something we cant run from because its every around every corner. So when we learn to accept these difference we may be a school who actually fulfills our mission motto.
