Dear Barley, As you know, my son has wanted to attend Booker T. for high school since he learned about the program at age 9. After discovering the Studio Arts Portfolio class, I struggled over whether or not it would really make a difference or if it was worth the cost. Now that he got his acceptance, I can honestly say that the Portfolio Class is the main reason he got in – worth every penny! Not only did he learn important skills needed to build a strong portfolio, but the biggest value was that you helped him build his confidence. He went in to the auditions knowing he had worked his hardest on his portfolio and felt so prepared for the different parts of the audition. One of the reasons I decided to sign him up for the class was because I thought it would be a good test to see if he loved art enough to commit to an arts high school. What he discovered was that he loved every class, was so excited about doing the work, and never once complained. The staff at Studio Arts is so supportive and you really helped him reach his potential. Thank you for all you did for Sam. It was invaluable.Thank you.
