Purpose of GAPPS Fine Arts and Academics
GAPPS Arts and Academics is here to serve our member schools and to help provide a place to get EVERY student in your school involved.
Our primary goal of arts and academic competition is to teach young men and women to express their many creative and academic talents in ways that bring glory and honor to God.
Winning is important, but it is not the most important thing.
"It is possible to win a game... yet lose our ability to shine light into a dark world." (anonymous)
