Public Academy for Performing Arts

Performance brings us together!

Hello PAPA families,

Welcome to a New School Year – Where Performance brings us together!

We’re thrilled to kick off a year full of promise, passion, and possibility! This year, we’re raising the bar—together. Our school isn’t just a place to learn; it’s a stage for bold performances, a space where every voice matters, and a community that lifts each other higher.

Whether you’re stepping into the spotlight for the first time or returning with fresh goals and bright ideas, know this: you’re part of a team that celebrates effort, supports growth, and believes in the power of unity. So let’s collaborate, shine, and make this year unforgettable. Because when we perform with purpose and community, there’s no limit to what we can achieve.

Let’s go!

Respectfully,

Tamara Lopez

Executive Director

Registration Appointments

Please review the available slots below for your grade level. Please note that siblings may attend together. Please sign up for 1-time slot per family if you will attend at the same time. We anticipate registration will take between 1 hour to an hour and a half to complete. If you complete forms in advance, time will be much shorter. A parent/guardian is required to attend along with the student(s). We have found that using appointment times reduces wait times significantly. Without appointments, there are rush periods with extended wait times and times when no one is registering. Using appointments has improved the registration process for both the families registering and the workers. If your child did not attend the new student orientation, you must register and attend the 7/24 AM session.
