| Hi Collegebound87! hmmmmm running around NYC unchaperoned last summer! I know you had a great time because I know many (but I'm sure not all) of the stories! Our major ground rule for our D was no venturing out alone which wasn't a problem with you as part of the OCHSA group.
My D was one of the 10 OCHSA kids at CAP last summer. It was a great experience and she, and her friends, grew not only as performers but as young adults. She shared a NYU suite with 3 other girls and had a constant stream of friends and teachers from OCHSA visiting. I had no qualms about sending my D it was a great way to help her to focus on her goals and refine them before starting the college search. She is a very focused kid and now her dream of theater production is well on its way to reality.
It was a dream come true for her to be able to see 17-18 Broadway shows in 6 weeks!
I think the key to sending your child off to CAP is knowing that they have the maturity to make choices that appropriate. The OCHSA kids who are going this summer are excited and they are talented great kids. |
