Clayton County Public Schools (CCPS) prides itself on being the Fine Arts Capital South of Atlanta. This designation is evident in everything we do. The mission of Clayton County Public Schools is to empower scholars to achieve academic, professional, and personal goals by providing equitable access and experiences that build skills in literacy, CREATIVITY, critical thinking and collaboration. We believe that arts and culture cultivate the whole child, gradually building literacy while developing imagination, skill, reasoning, and intuition into unique forms of expression and communication. One of the 2021-2026 Strategic Goals is to "establish a creative district where scholars and the community have access to the arts and cultural experiences and resources that support collaborative and individual creative pursuits.
