As a pre-conservatory school, SDSCPA offers students the opportunity to engage in focused arts courses during the school day, complemented by after-school activities that enhance their skills and training. This comprehensive approach equips them for success in post-secondary arts programs at colleges, universities, and conservatories.
All students audition for an arts major, committing to up to six years of dedicated training in their chosen artistic interest. Under the guidance of passionate, professional artist-teachers and guest artists, they gain invaluable experience in Creative Writing, Dance, Design & Production, Music, Theatre, and Visual & Media Arts, ensuring they are well-prepared for their artistic futures.
