Wow...didn't know this was here! Clearly you were not in the music dept...not one pic of any of us from the other end of the floor! lolol God Bless ya anyway...this was undoubtedly around the best decades of this school, no offense to the new one, but there was nothing like the old PA, the neighborhood, the building...the intimate energy of just 600 kids in an entire school. Thanks for posting this!
broadwaybaby05...u went hard for no reason..the fact is laguradia is obv better den newark w/e bcuz its more known...and FAME wasnt about laguardia, it was about PA!..get it str8 sweety!
laguardia is in NYC.. and has better facilities and more money..was not established first.. it was just more popular... it just stuck out more. THATS why they made a movie about it.
Arts in newark.. was established in the 1931..and laguardia was established in 1948..SEVENTEEN YEARS AFTER... NOW THAT THE MATH IS LAYED OUT FOR YOU.. WHO WAS THE FIRST ARTS HIGH SCHOOL IN THE NATION??? ARTS HIGH SCHOOL... WE CAME BEFORE FAME
This is fabulous. Whatever happened to Diamond Dave Medina? And I would like to say to the New Jersey performing Arts Crew. You claim to be the first performing arts high school in the nation. Why didn't they make a movie about you?
This isn't the original high school of performing arts. It's Arts High School, the first performing arts high school in the nation, in Newark, New Jersey. The school I go to.
when it says 'original' I think it's refering to PA's original location on 46th St before it closed in '84, as oppossed to the Lincoln Center location now which also changed it's name and incorporated fine arts as well.
woww..that was amazing...well im a dance major laguardia now..found this on my teachers page who went to PA...and its not as nearly fun as this vid made PA luk bak then...really wish i could bak in time to experience it..lol...but dat wa a real kool vid..nd wats da name of the second song played???
Please watch my films...they are original and I am new to the internet I am still in art school (College) I am just puttung my stuff out. Please take a look

Hey thanks so much!
What a great walk down memory lane. So sorry to hear of Leslie's passing. Do you remember Wallace Jenkins?
Another loss for the whole PA family.
Thanks again for posting!
