Congratulations to Heather Rivas, age 13, upon her acceptance to the Los Angeles County High School for the Arts (LACHSA.)
Young Heather worked diligently with
us this past year with the support of her parents to prepare her extremely competitive audition exams. She rose above all
competitors in Los Angeles County to win the coveted Jazz Pianist chair in the Musical Arts Program. She starts her Freshmen
year at the "Arts High" in the fall.
We've had the privilege of working with the Rivas family, her talented brother Christopher, also a
student at LACHSA, since Heather was age 6.
Congratulations
to a very hardworking, intelligent, mature and delightful kid and her supportive parents!!!!! Well deserved!!!
