Megan Murphy, PCA Class of 2018 

The fine and performing arts have been part of my life for almost as long as I can remember. No matter what endeavors I’ve pursued, I’ve always returned to these creative environments. With this in mind, I decided to combine my artistic passions with my writing, organization, and people skills, and pursue a career in arts management (specifically public relations, programming, and marketing). I hope to enrich people’s lives by helping introduce them to art, whether that’s theatre, dance, music, singing, or visual works. Such forms of expression have changed my life, and I aspire to share them with others.

A&R Coordinator at Hollywood Records & Disney Music Publishing, PCA Class of 2013 

Since graduating from PCA almost every decision I’ve made has been based off of how I can impact those around me and how I can make an impact on a greater level. No matter what you do or who you’re around you can be a light. My biggest passion in life is music and once I got my start in the music business my approach was to be the person who others could come to and lean on no matter what it may be. I knew it wasn’t always about what words I would say, but my character and how dependable I could be for my team. Now that I’ve had more time in my role and career development, it has become clear what ways I can try and make “bigger” impacts outside of my immediate circle. Having built this mindset as part of my foundation at PCA has been a great help to me.  Read More

Each school year is filled with millions of little moments—like Mrs. Brown showing her students what it looks like when a butterfly crawls out of its cocoon, or Dr. Abood grabbing the backpack, and the donut, to help a student out of their car at drop-off, or two preschool students meeting each other for the first time and instantly getting into the subject of whose shoes make them run faster.

We all know the saying, “it takes a village to raise a child.” While strong academics and social opportunities are obvious measures of a school’s success, in an era of social distancing and remote learning, it’s more important than ever to also make sure each child is receiving the support and nurture they need from their school community.  

Schooling has looked different for many families during Covid. Because of this, it’s helpful to assess whether your child’s learning environment is one that cultivates the positive community culture your child needs to thrive. Here are a few questions to consider when looking for the right community for your child’s schooling this upcoming year.

Things haven’t been normal this year. We’ve had to wear masks, our classrooms are socially distanced, and we’ve had to learn how to get the hang of a lot of new technology. There’s no hiding that PCA has looked different this year.
