Welcome to the Central Middle School Performing Arts Department!
Our courses include a variety of ensembles including Band, Orchestra, Choir, Dance, Theatre, and Theatre Tech. The music department is under the direction of Ms. Caitlin Henry and Mrs. Heather Akers. Theatre is taught by Mr. Higbee, and Dance is taught by Ms. Powell.
The Central Middle School Music Department has been a perennial performer and award winning department in many community and larger regional festivals and performance venues. Most recently, in 2019 we were selected as the recipients of the Espirit de Corps Award for the second year (2018 as well) in a row for Most Outstanding Music Department in performance at our annual Music in the Parks festival series.
Our bands, choirs, and orchestra have always performed at top tier levels and competed with class, excellence, and Senator Pride! Our theatre program's productions are above board and our dance program is top notch.
We welcome you to our department and hope you will take advantage of all we have to offer! We encourage you to take charge with your student(s)’ education by joining and participating with our Dover Middle School Performing Arts Boosters organization as well!
For any question please feel free to email Ms. Henry, Mrs. Akers, Mr. Higbee, or Ms. Powell. Thank you and welcome to the Arts family here in Capital
