With the challenges associated with the shift to a virtual learning environment this spring, we are aware that some families were not aware that the PVA program’s late auditions were still taking place in the new virtual environment.  In an effort to support students and families who were not aware of this year’s late auditions, we are opening on final late application window, effective June 1- June 12 for the following grades and primes:
Rising 6^th Grade Students – Dance, Band, Strings, Vocal
Rising 7^th Grade Students – Dance, Band, Strings, Vocal
Rising 9^th Grade Students – Creative Writing, Dance, Film & New Media, Band, Guitar, Strings, Piano, Theatre (Acting), Theatre (Design & Production), Visual Arts, Vocal
Rising 10^th Grade Students – Creative Writing, Dance, Film & New Media, Band, Guitar, Strings, Piano, Theatre (Acting), Theatre (Design & Production), Visual Arts, Vocal
(The additional June audition window is unique to this school year, and will not occur in future years.)

Auditions will be scheduled virtually, and will conclude by June 19.  DUE TO THE LATENESS OF THIS AUDITION, AND THE NEED TO GET ACCEPTED STUDENTS REGISTERED AT THEIR NEW SCHOOL PRIOR TO THE ONSET OF SUMMER BRIDGE – ALL SEAT OFFER ACCEPTANCES AND SEAT OFFER REFUSALS MUST BE MADE BY 4 p.m. ON JUNE 22.
