The mission of The Pittsburgh High School for the Creative and Performing Arts (CAPA) is to provide every student with a comprehensive academic program rooted in a high quality arts education experience.
The vision of the Pittsburgh High School for the Creative and Performing Arts (CAPA) is to establish a best in class teaching and learning environment that will enable all students to study the arts for their intrinsic, aesthetic, historical, and cultural value. This environment will include the interaction and input of all stakeholders: parents, teachers, students, and community. It will be enhanced by partnerships and collaborations with local arts organizations and universities aimed at providing students with myriad opportunities in which to explore the relationship between the world of school and the worlds of family and work. It is an environment that allows students to become adults with a lifelong involvement in and appreciation of the arts.
