We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I've been at East Los Angeles Performing Arts Magnet high school for four years now. I've had a great experience coming out of my comfort zone and tried new things. Being in this school helped me realize music is my passion. I love how this school feels like it's a small community and how it helped me grow as a person/performer.
