For any student who feels that their passion for the arts are not being met by The Morgan School and its curriculum, dual enrollment with New Haven’s Educational Center for the Arts might be a good fit. The public magnet school grants students from all over the state the ability to pursue their artistic passion, whether it be music, theatre, writing, dance, or visual arts, while also attending their regular high school part-time. Three talented and accomplished Morgan students are currently enrolled in ECA: Senior Vanessa Horan, Senior Annie Kennedy, and Senior Julianne Goodman. From 1:00pm to 4:10pm Monday through Thursday, these students expand their creative potential and explore their own innovative ideas in courses of their choice, ranging anywhere from virtual reality to poetry writing, ballet to theatre production. The Morgan PawParrazi was able to have exclusive interviews with Annie Kennedy and Vanessa Horan about their experience at ECA.
