Why Performing Arts?
SPA believes that when students perform in front of an audience
they develop character skills that last far beyond the cheers of a
crowd. Our performers learn to be leaders, build self confidence,
work as a team, and much more.
We encourage students to develop their performance skills and
particpate in community performing opportunities that most children never experience.
Currently over 50% of students in our performing arts program perform outside of school in a variety of venues, including:
- Models in fashion shows and store windows;
- Singing the National Anthem for the Phoenix Suns, Roadrunners, Diamondbacks, Cubs, and Mercury;
- Perform as a featured group at Disneyland, Queen Mary, and Knottsberry Farm;
- Our students have been invited to do a European tour In 2009 .
What We Do:
- Individualized learning and differentiated instruction

- An accredited standards-based educational curriculum that provides interactive, self-paced, challenging, engaging activities
- Project-based activities to promote exploration, individual and cooperative learning, problem solving, reflection, and real-world connections
