This award reflects our commitment to growing inclusive, high-quality art education programs that help students unlock their potential -- on stage, in the classroom, and beyond.
Theatre Arts
Lockhart ISD offers an award-winning theatre arts program at the secondary level, with both Lockhart Junior High and Lockhart High School Theatre earning top honors. This program is dedicated to developing creativity, confidence, collaboration, and a lifelong appreciation for the arts. We are proud to extend this same excellence to the elementary level, giving students early opportunities to explore creativity, build confidence, and grow through the arts.
Dance
Lockhart ISD’s award-winning dance program, recognized with several honors this past competition season, continues to enrich students at the secondary level and we are proud to extend those opportunities to our elementary students as well. At the elementary level, this program will be integrated into physical education and supports students by fostering creativity, connecting to culture, and building confidence, while also promoting movement and lifelong wellness.
