[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree with PPs citing the effects of COVID on the perf arts. Kids who would have been joining their MS music program in 6th grade didn’t and some dropped their instrument when lessons went virtual. Most MS and esp HS level programs are still re-building. Another factor is the increasing focus on sports. Money, time, attention go to sports over the arts. It’s a reflection of popular American culture: athlete worship and the money the coaches/managers/owners/players make starting in kids’ sports all the way through to prof leagues. Private schools are not only not above it, they are in whole hog from sports as an admissions hook even in sixth grade, recruiting, money spent on facilities, etc. [/quote] Uhhhh not at Maret[/quote]
