DOAD #3: Is a performance arts high school the right fit for your young artist?

I had my doubts!

In today’s episode, I talk about the doubts I had when I sent my son to a performing arts high school. I walked into orientation with a bunch of questions and assumptions burning in my mind:

  • What’s the schedule like here - do they toss math and science aside and it’s just “all arts classes all the time!?”

  • Is there any discipline enforced, or do they let these young artists just run wild and free?

  • Are there any testing standards that students are held to?

Certainly listen to the episode, but spoiler alert: the answers to these questions were a pleasant surprise!
