Sometimes I get to relive my glory days through the sounds of the music I grew up with (now considered “classic” rock) and watch the transformation of slouching, indifferent teens into rock stars. This weekend was one of those times.

Our daughter has been part of the Commercial Recording Arts or CRAD (now known as Music, Media and Entertainment Technology) (MMET)Department of the Academy of Performing Arts (APA) during her four years of high school. APA is a magnet program of Huntington Beach Union High School District, students must live in the school district and audition for inclusion in the department of their choice. Besides CRAD, which of course is the coolest department because it’s rock n’ roll , there is Theater, Musical Theatre, Dance, Orchestral Music, and Technical Theatre. Learn more about APA here.  Auditions are being scheduled now, in case you have a child who loves drama, music, shooting movies, or wants to learn about entertainment technology.
