Johnson City Schools understands and appreciates the benefits of students' exposure to fine arts. This year has been difficult for our fine arts programs, but we are hopeful that will be better during the 2021-2022 school year. We have created this resource for our families to find information about our fine arts offerings. For more information about the Fine Arts programs please see below or reach out to the teacher listed.
