Wadleigh Secondary School for the Performing & Visual Arts

Wadleigh Secondary School for the Performing and Visual Arts is composed of six art studios and one academic program: Dance, Drama, Vocal Music, Instrumental Music, Visual Arts, and Wadleigh Secondary. All visual and performing arts students wishing to attend Wadleigh must audition for one of these studios. Students may be programmed for an Extended Day, as necessary, to fulfill both their academic and studio requirements. Our studios provide opportunities for our students to develop their talents in the arts as they pursue academic excellence. They will graduate from Wadleigh with a New York State Regents diploma.
