Next announcement: We have a new name! We are now Starr School of Music & Theater.

The name Starr is not only Nikkita's last name, but also reflects her belief: that every performer has the potential to shine--whether they're taking their first steps onto a stage, learning their first notes on their instrument, or discovering a lifelong passion for the arts. Like a star in the night sky, each student brings their own light, individuality, and story. ✨
