Professional Performing Arts School
The Professional Performing Arts School (PPAS) is a New York City public school "created in 1990 to meet the needs of two groups of students: those who wanted to pursue professional work in the arts as they earned a junior/senior high school diploma and those who wanted to study the arts as an avocation. PPAS continues that mission today as students follow a daily schedule of academic work at school each morning and intensive performing arts instruction at professional studios each afternoon. The performing arts curriculum offers students in grades nine through twelve a unique opportunity to study the arts in a professional environment. Partnerships include the Alvin Ailey American Dance Center, the Lucy Moses School of Music, and The Actors Institute." [1]The school is located in 48th Street in Manhattan, about 2 miles south of the Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music & Art.
