The creative and performing arts program consists of creative writing, art, creative and performance drama, vocal training, and dance. The sports program offers age-appropriate sports games including gymnastics, basketball, and sports dance. All students are members of the ADDA CLEVENGER YOUTH CHORUS OF SAN FRANCISCO under the direction of John Davy-Hatcher. Choristers receive a well-rounded music education and many opportunities to perform. The repertoire includes classical, sacred, folk, theater, and current popular music. As part of their training, children in the upper grades attend many live performances during the year. Each school year every student takes part in at least three major theatrical productions. These range from Gilbert and Sullivan operettas and Broadway musicals to dance shows, and choral concerts. Recent performances include; Guys and Dolls. H.M.S. Pinafore, Annie, Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella with the San Francisco Sinfonietta Orchestra; seven concerts during a two-week tour of Switzerland and Germany which included side trips to France, Austria, Italy and Liechtenstein; two Christmas concerts at the White House in Washington, D.C.

The Adda Clevenger Schools
follow the international tradition of a longer school day and
year and therefore are able to provide a double curriculum:
accelerated academics and creative and performing arts.
The curriculum is designed to cover subjects appropriate to the
formal education of children exceeding state requirements.
No special agendas are served.
The facility is a
beautiful historic twelve thousand square foot building
in San Francisco's Noe Valley,
where San Francisco history began.
