August 2018 begins a new chapter for our school and the surrounding community as we start the new school year as the Wayman Tisdale Fine Arts Academy.
August 2018 begins a new chapter for our school and the surrounding community as we start the new school year as the Wayman Tisdale Fine Arts Academy. Wayman Tisdale was known not only for his great talents both on the stage and on the basketball court, but also his relentless positivity, kindness, perseverance, and grace even under the most difficult circumstances. The school name ad hoc committee chose Tisdale because his life and legacy embody our core values of equity, character, excellence, team, and joy. Even though he was taken from our community much too soon, he remains an exceptional role model for Chouteau students and families.
