Enriching the Student's Experience through Extracurriculars
During the academic year, opportunities for students to enrich their experience are wide and varied.
Academic enrichment classes includes art, classroom music, physical education, computing, Spanish language, and religious and sacramental programs.
Academic extracurricular competitions include GCCMT math, St. Ed's Classroom of Champions, the annual science fair (winners compete within the district at St. Edwards and regionally at the University of Akron), Diocesan Spelling Bee, National Geography Bee, and the Computerized Thinking Cap Quiz Bowl.
In Music, Instrumental Band and Choir are offered to all students. Students perform in Winter and Spring concerts.
Drama and Fine Arts are encouraged through two full-school theatre productions and fine art exhibitions. Students also visit the Cleveland Museum of Art, the Palace or State Theatre, the Cleveland Playhouse, and the Western Reserve Historical Society. A theatrical or ministry group often performs in school for students.

Students Making a Difference (SMAD) In our Academy, every discipline integrates the social justice principles of the Catholic Church. The Catholic student is taught specifically to care for the needy and those marginalized in society through projects and programs. At the Academy of St. Adalbert, we have SMAD - Students Making A Difference. In this organization composed of 4th - 8th graders, our students are learning the importance of volunteering their talents and participating in numerous charitable works to help them understand their role as Catholic Christians in society.
