The Allen ISD fine arts programs have brought national attention to our community through competitions and per- formances. We are extremely proud of theses stu- dents and the faculty who direct these programs. Beyond the recognition, participation in Fine Arts help provide a well-rounded education through self-discipline and teamwork. The fine arts experiences of our students also foster an enjoyment of the arts that they will carry with them for life. - Dr. Ken Helvey, Superintendent
