Salama decided several years ago to include courses in the performing and visual arts.
The primary reasons for this inclusion are:
• The arts offer enjoyment and a sense of achievement
• The arts encourage creativity.
• The arts broaden and give a world view to our thought processes.
• The creation of a sense of leadership and teamwork.
• Increase standardized test scores.
• Insure the ability to research and discover facts around subject materials.
• Sharpen the ability to critically process information and make choices.
• The development of healthy self image.
• To encourage students to explore different cultures and environments.

Student Testimony: “Salama prepared me academically and emotionally. Additionally since I had an interest in singing I received coaching needed to prepare me for some of the nation’s finest performing arts programs. I actually received several scholarship offers around the country and chose to attend Morgan State University.”
Review From The Tennessean: “They were simply fantastic…their performance felt as if it were taking place in a theater on Broadway or the famous Apollo Theater in Harlem.” - Dwight Lewis, The Tennessean, 2003
