The Pegasus arts program gives students the opportunity to explore their artistic talents, whether through the visual arts, music, or theater.
Arts Overview
Pegasus has a renowned arts program that provides opportunities for students to discover their inner creative talents. Lower School students participate in visual arts and music and movement rotation classes. Younger students are introduced to different types of materials, media, and techniques while the older students expand upon their passions and talents as they improve their confidence.

In the Middle School, students have the option to choose arts electives. A variety of arts courses are available, including fine art, digital art, music, dance, and theater. There is a special Middle School Theater Arts performance in the winter and another in the spring.
