Fine Arts
MLHS students are well-rounded and multi-talented. Many students are athletes, National Honor Soceity members and also participate in Fine Arts activities, Student Government and/or Journalism.
Drama productions at the historic Fairmont Opera House allow the "stars" to come out in every actor.
Music offers another opportunity to teach teens that God loves them according to Ms Amber Dermody, our full-time Music Director. Band and choir are offered every day. Students perform several concerts during the year with the Christmas Concert performed on the beautiful stage at the historic Fairmont Opera House. MLHS is a member of the Minnesota Stat High School League and musicians compete at the Region 6A Solo Ensemble Contest. Select musicians perform for charitable events at nursing homes and fundraisers.
Students are able to express their creative talents in art class. A variety of mediums are explored including pottery as the Art Department has their own kiln. Students display their work at the Lutheran Schools Fine Arts Festival and compete in the regional Art show at the Red Rock Center.
