I'm a 1998 graduate of Theater from this school and going there was nothing short of pivotal in my life. I feel my life is a success because of this school and I dream of my children going to a school that is similar around Boston where I live now. I am certain that 100% of the students and faculty feel honored to be there, how many high schools can make that claim? This school is different from any other I can see. That it is a public school for the state is a key difference because it pulls in culture and talent from the entire state. It provides opportunity to unique students who would be swallowed up by their small rural hometowns. I am certain that Minneapolis/St.Paul owes much of its artistic offerings directly to this school.  When I look back at my life, the years I spent there are far and away a bright highlight that I speak of often and is a source of pride when I talk about Minnesota.

I graduated in 2013 from Media at PCAE. I can easily say that attending the Arts High School was one of the happiest times in my life. I was able to receive an education that fit my learning learning style, and dive into art that I loved. I was allowed to explore both myself, and my voice creatively with the support of amazing, dedicated teachers. I received more support and guidance in preparation for college than any of my friends who stayed at my previous high school. I was able to jump into University with an impressive resume and skills that have served me well. Attending Perpich was an opportunity that I am lucky to have gotten, and I hope that many more individuals like myself are able to discover and thrive at the Perpich Center for Arts Education.

I went to Perpich 2009 - 2011.  I met the greatest love's of my life and a foundation for discovering my self that without I would never have become the Artist nor friend I am today.  It is an indispensable experience that is an absolute necessity for helping find out one's purpose at such a wild age.  Your child's time here will live with them for the rest of their lives, with such a deeper and more wondrous understanding of what that Life is.

As an alumni I can say with ease, that attending the Perpich Center was one of the single best life choices I've ever made. Not only did it help me to develop lifelong friends and contacts, it also helped to hone my creative abilities and gear them towards real world use. As a successful writer, author, and business owner, I can truly say that I wouldn't have been able to accomplish any of it without the Perpich Center.

I spent my junior and senior year here in 03. As a theater major,  I learned technical skills and intricate training that I wouldn't have began learning until I was in college, which prepared me for advanced materials and methods of acting that were beyond my age. The staff and dorm team make life on campus easy and much like home, as much as you are living your daily art area. This school made me learn my true potential and I will never forget the dreams inside these hallways.
