Learners Today, Leaders Tomorrow

Performing and Visual Arts Program

This is the place for...Music!

The performing arts program is designed to prepare the student for college, as well as a career in the arts. Our program is highly demanding, but can take any student, whether they are a beginner or advanced, to the college level. Evidence of this is seen in the high number of students receiving scholarships, performing well in state competitions and evaluations, as well as being able to perform with sophisticated groups in the NY metropolitan area.
