Welcome to the premier Digital Arts & Design program in Middle Tennessee! During their four years with us at Rossview High School, students can become masters of photography, digital illustration, branding, and many other aspects of graphic design! Our program's primary goal is not only to help students discover and define their creativity as it applies to all areas of their education but also to prepare them for life outside the walls of Rossview. The skills developed during this program will help them transition smoothly into any technical, collegiate, or professional experience that awaits them after high school graduation.

I am grateful for what I learned in AMAT because it has helped me more than I ever thought it would. I originally joined the academy just so I could continue going to Rossview... I didn’t have a huge interest in digital arts and didn’t think it would help me much in the future. But now, I am a senior chemistry major at Austin Peay, and I can say it’s helped me a ton. Last night I had my first research symposium, and I built a website for it that wowed even the chair of the chemistry department because it was so well designed. I feel AMAT gave me great skills that I was able to take with me to tackle things like this that I otherwise would’ve had a way harder time doing than I did.
