First Ward Creative Arts Middle School is located in uptown Charlotte in one of the city’s oldest and most culturally diverse communities. As we transition into a full Arts Magnet Middle School, we are excited to offer students unique opportunities to further explore and refine their artistic talents while pursuing academic excellence.
Middle school students will have the opportunity to declare a focus area—or “major”—in the arts, allowing them to develop their skills, creativity, and passion in a professional and supportive environment. Major options include dance, chorus, piano, band, orchestra, theatre arts, and visual arts. Classroom teachers and Explore teachers partner to guide students on their journey, helping them grow as artists, innovators, and scholars.
At FWMS, we celebrate a high level of family and community involvement and work collaboratively with families from diverse areas of Mecklenburg County to develop a shared vision for our students. Our beautiful and welcoming facility provides an inspiring environment for creativity and learning to thrive. FWMS is an exciting place for all students to learn, grow, and shine.
Discover your passion. Refine your talent. Shine at FWMS!
