Proposition 28: The Arts and Music in Schools Funding Annual Report

John Adams Academy follows the American Classical Leadership Education® model where we develop our scholars through the Liberal Arts. In a classical education setting, offering and expanding our visual arts programs like strings, band, theatre, and choir play a complementary and vital role in the broader curriculum. Classical education traditionally emphasizes the trivium (grammar, logic, and rhetoric) and great works of Western civilization; arts programs enhance the holistic development of scholars in ways that align with classical values.  

 

John Adams Academy plan: beginning in the 2023-2024 school year, hire a Performing Arts Mentor for each campus to mentor in the performing arts and ensure quality performing arts productions at each site.  This role is to expand in the 2024-2025 school year.  Also, in the 2023-2024 school year, band programing was piloted at each site, mostly in an after-school format.  Starting in the 2024-25 school year band will move as an offering during the school day and we will begin a strings program.  Each campus, in the 2023-2024 school year began after school arts and music enrichment programing, which is expanding in the 2024-2025 school year.  The academy is also expanding class offering in the visual arts.
