Fine Arts

École McTavish has many opportunities for students interested in visual and performing arts. Option courses that are offered at our school include: Glee, Band, Drama, and Art. There are also extra-curricular offerings: Theatre Production and Set Design.

Several teachers at our school also participate in Learning Through The Arts. This initiative partners local artists with teachers and together they design engaging and quality lessons that incorporate fine arts into core curriculum.

Our Ecole McTavish High School is proud to offer music programming for grades 7-12 including Instrumental Music (Concert and Jazz Band), Glee, Guitar and Musical Theatre. Here is a direct link to our McTavish Music page, where you can see video explanations and facts about each course! https://sites.google.com/fmpsd.ab.ca/mctavishmusic/

Division Notice

ATA Strike Commencing on Monday; School Closures Starting Oct 6th

As a result of the Alberta Teachers Association (ATA) rejecting a proposed deal from the Teachers’ Employer Bargaining Association (TEBA), all FMPSD schools will be closed to students starting Monday, October 6, 2025, unless a new agreement is reached or strike action is otherwise averted. Additionally, all yellow school bus routes will be suspended for the duration of the strike.

In light of the ongoing strike, all extracurricular activities, including sports, clubs, and after-school programs, will be temporarily suspended.

As there is no definitive end date for the strike, FMPSD is unable to provide a timeline for when normal operations will resume. We will continue to provide timely updates as we receive them from the Ministry of Education and Child Care.
