History
History
Seoul Arts High School was founded on March 21, 1953 as Ewha Arts High School by the Yooha School Foundation (which was later renamed Ewha School Foundation and is the same foundation that operates Ewha Girls' High School and its other satellite schools). The name was changed later that year to reflect the school's coeducational status. Originally a government-aided school, it was granted autonomous (private) status, effective from the 2003–04 academic year. The school held a special exhibition in 2013 to celebrate its 50th anniversary. The incumbent principal, Geum Nan-se (금난새), was appointed in 2014 and is the school's 8th principal.

The music department has notably sent its students to the country's top music schools, including Seoul National University's College of Music, and the internationally renowned Curtis Institute of Music and Juilliard School in the United States. The art and dance departments are also well-known for high-achieving graduates as well. Seoul Arts High School requires students to take mainstream subjects like their peers in regular high schools, in addition to specialist majors offered by the three departments: • Dance • Art • Music
