Our Academy, founded in 1996, a performing and visual arts Academy within Dana Hills High School in Dana Point, California, celebrates its 15th year of high school students studying in the arts with many going on to universities, conservatories, continuing with their craft or utilizing their own individual art talents and studying in another field. We are proud of and grateful for our graduates. As the Artistic Director, Faculty, Benefactors, and Foundation Board, we are happy to support them.

SOCSA In The Community
The SOCSA academy aggressively seeks to maintain close relations with arts groups, community and civic organizations, and other arts education programs in the South Orange County area. Frequent appearances are made by our performers and artists at functions and celebrations throughout the region, and many community groups attend our performances and plays at the Porthole Theatre on the Dana Hills High School campus. Collaborative efforts with other arts schools, professional theatre companies, art museums, and the like are constantly sought by our students and staff. This involvement is a great help in the development of our students' abilities, and a benefit to the cultural life in our community as well. We welcome all inquiries from other arts groups or individuals who wish to participate with us in the pursuit of excellence in arts education.
