Arts
The arts programs at La Jolla Country Day School support our mission of developing scholars, artists, and athletes of character. While students pursue academic excellence, they also develop their artistic voice, starting with a strong foundation in the Lower School, expanding in the Middle School, and continuing through advanced Upper School electives and performances.
PERFORMING
From concert choir, dance technique, playwriting, and directing to technical theater, students showcase their work in events on and off campus.
