Twenty-One Years of Celebrating
SUSD Visual and Performing Arts

Our SUSD students illustrated their talents in the Annual Visual and Performing Arts Showcase held at the Stockton Arena on the evening of March 7, 2012. The Record referred to the showcase as “An arena transformed Wednesday evening into a school version of Carnegie Hall.” The notable presentation featured over 2100 students from 45 SUSD schools. Superintendent Carl Toliver led the presentation of medallions to all of the participants.
The highlight of the 2012 showcase was the Combined High School Illuminating Digital Art Exhibit. The brilliant performances by the Orchestras, Concert Bands, Choirs, Mariachi, Jazz Band and Dancers attributed to the tremendous success of the Showcase. Selections from Bach to Disney arrangements were among the amazing repertoire performed by the SUSD ensemble. The art work showcased on the Concourse of the Arena was an exemplary exhibit with rave reviews from attendees.
An ovation is given to all of the supportive staff, parents, District Administration and the SUSD Board of Trustees for being the most enthusiastic audience.
