Interesting Fact!

Did you know that evaluators at college admissions offices look for potential students among their applicants who have participated in serious arts programs and who have persisted and completed those programs. Students who fit that profile are seen to have the ability to work hard, persist through difficulty, and ultimately succeed at high levels in demanding college programs. This is even more desirable than the idea of being "well rounded".

Food for thought....
