College Preparatory Academy opening in North Dallas for Performing Arts Students
Ovation Academy is a new innovative education option for Dancers, Actors and Musicians in the North Dallas Area. Ovation Academy was founded as a Non-Profit corporation to provide a home for performers to pursue their passion of the Arts through professional style training which provides the technique, life-skills, experiences and connections necessary to succeed in the industry. We focus on each individual student and their unique journey. Ovation Academy strives to produce knowledgeable, respectful, empathetic and impactful artists who will contribute to their communities and to the performing arts industry. Information meetings have begun. Enrollment and auditions will take place in June and July. The Academy is set to open in August 2018!
Our students are trained to be highly technical artists with a sense of community and humility. Philanthropy and Community Outreach are central themes at Ovation Academy. Through the talents our students possess we strive to make a difference in our community by giving back and helping those around us.
Ovation Academy encourages constant industry immersion. We provide field-trip opportunities in order for our students to grasp all aspects of the world of performing arts. We bring in industry leaders to assist in the high-level training our students receive, providing different styles and perspectives throughout their education. We encourage students to pursue opportunities to audition and work professionally in the arts while continuing their arts education with Ovation Academy. Additionally, we provide networking opportunities with talent scouts, managers, agents and directors as well as elite college recruiters. We equip our students to be good-hearted people as well as hard-working professionals and respectable leaders.
Ovation Academy believes that rigorous academics in addition to professional training is essential to the success of an artist. The Academic requirements for Full-Immersion students will be provided by iUniversity Prep. iUniversity Prep is an online public school that offers rigorous academics, innovative instructors and a collaborative community that offers resources and support to students to create a well-rounded academic experience.
