[quote=Anonymous]For three years, my daughter participated in Fairfax County’s Institute for the Arts (IFTA) summer program. It’s a several week program that draws kids from junior high age through high school age, for all kinds of arts. They held an open house on the last day and we would attend. These kids were artsy, sure. Many of them were quirky in appearance. They ran the gamut from high extrovert to high introvert. I felt that the IFTA definitely provided a nurturing safe space for these kids. I was concerned that some might have been subject to bullying in the past. My point - and I do have one - is that these kids are exactly who might benefit from a good music/theater/arts/dance scene at college. Take a look at Shenandoah Conservatory for example.[/quote]
