[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm curious of the quality of the Performing Arts curriculum. Are the recitals/plays, etc actually good? Are the kids talented? Because it's not an application-based program, I wonder how they deal with a mix of talent.[/quote]

My daughter was in dance.  The beginners class that she was in had a mix of kids that had talent & wanted to be there, and kids did not give a damn.  They were frantically trying to learn the dance the week of the recital.  If your child is advanced in drama or dance, make sure that you do not miss try outs in order to get into a higher level of instruction. We missed them, and honestly my daughter was nervous, so she probably wouldn't have wanted to try out.  She  could have easily been placed in the advanced group (and really she's average, but she practices on her own and enjoys dancing).  Some of the advanced classes had nice dances, and I did enjoy the dance concerts, but they certainly aren't headed to any famous dance troupes anytime soon.

Ultimately we did not return for 7th grade, but your experience may be different. [/quote]
