Performing Arts
On Tuesday, September 29, 2015, the esteemed actress Ms. Wendy Raquel Robinson "Tasha Mack" from the TV show The Game, and "Principal Greer" from the Steve Harvey Show came to visit the 54th street School. She and her staff from the Amazing Grace Conservatory staff visited our campus for a meet and greet with our students. The Amazing Grace Conservatory, which she started, has helped many youth throughout Los Angeles reach their goals of college entry, which sometimes lead to jobs in the field of performing arts. The Performing Arts is a disciplined program designed to increase comprehension, listening and reading skills. From participating in the program we expect our students to learn to operate as a team, acquire public speaking skills, improve academic excellence, and build character.
The program will only be for 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades. There will be two shows. A talent showcase in December and a major theatrical production in May. This program is demanding, but fin and rewarding. Your child will grow immensely from being involved with the Amazing Grace Conservatory. For more information or to sign up for this program, visit the main office and pick up an application.
