From the rehearsals to the final bow, performing arts teach our students creativity, confidence, and collaboration. We are thrilled to have vibrant performing arts participation across all three MSSD schools, with each school staging an incredible musical every year!
This past year alone, over 170 MSSD students took part in our productions!
We are exceptionally proud of our high school students who represented us on the biggest stages this year:
Orpheum Theatre Awards: Earned major recognitions, including Best Front of House!
All-State Theatre: Selected top talent spotlighted on stage among the best in the state!
Our students shine in so many ways across our district, but there is something truly special about watching them shine on stage.
A massive thank you to Marsha Lantz, Becky Reeves, and Emily Burleson for your countless hours directing, mentoring, and guiding our talented performers. We are deeply grateful to our administrators, families, and community members who support fine arts programs in Milan!

Today, we are proud to celebrate the incredible music and band programs across the Milan Special School District!
A huge thank you to Rachel Edmaiston, Lisa Bryant, and Davey Edmaiston for their unwavering dedication to our students. From the excitement of Friday night football games and seasonal parades to Fall band competitions, Spring concert festivals, Solo & Ensemble, and All-State programs—there is truly never downtime for this team!
We also celebrate our elementary music program, which is building a strong foundation for our youngest artists through engaging general music classes and grade-level musicals.
Thank you to our directors and educators for your hard work, energy, and passion. We love seeing our students excel and shine!

Just a reminder students in 8th grade and below must have a parent/guardian with them to attend varsity football games.

We are proud to continue spotlighting our incredible fine arts programs and the dedicated educators who make them thrive. Today, we want to honor Chelsea Willis, Nancy Nicholas, and Allison Archie for their tireless hard work helping students discover and unleash their creative talents.
Every single year, this remarkable team goes above and beyond to organize the K-12 Student Art Showcase, giving our young artists a platform to shine. But their impact doesn't stop in the classroom—they consistently teach our students the power of using art to give back. A inspiring example from this past year: the Milan High School Art Program hand-crafted ceramic bowls to support Paul's Kitchen, directly benefiting our local community.
Thank you, Ms. Willis, Ms. Nicholas, and Ms. Archie, for inspiring creativity, building character, and making Milan a brighter place!

This week, we are celebrating Arts in Education across our district, and today we’re shining a massive light on our incredible Milan Choir program!
Under the talented direction of Paige Wilson and Bobbi Coln, our choir students represent the absolute best of Milan. From filling area nursing homes with joy and bringing the heat to local ball games with the National Anthem, to competing at the All-State level and taking the stage at Carnegie Hall in NYC—these students do it all!
We could not be prouder of their dedication, hard work, and the beautiful music they bring to our community and beyond.
