Arts
Kamiakin's music program has been recognized as a top program in the state. In recent years, the percussion ensemble took second place at the state solo and ensemble contest in 2005. Soloists have attended the solo part of the contest and in 2008 one soloist took first place in the snare drum category. The marching band has done well competitively also. In 2007 at the Cavalcade of Bands competition, the "Scarlet Tide" marching band received second place in the AAA small category and the "Best Percussion" award.
