Angelina,
I agree with Kent wholeheartedly. Both of my kids went to Interlochen's
summer camp.
These kids are so passionate about practicing that when they are
scheduled for required outdoor activities, they call it "forced fun"!
Cheers
David

Angelina,
Four of our five children attended the Academy...
If you want to be involved in virtually professional performance, if you
want to make optimal progress on your instrument, if you want
outstanding
preparation for college and for life, if you want to be among people who
are
excited, even passionate about their art and their academics, if you
want
truly deep and lasting friendships, if you can imagine being away from
your
present crowd, school and your parents for extended periods, if you are
well
grounded psychologically, if you can be as excited for your friend in
the
theatre program as you are for your friends in the orchestra or band, if
you
can abide music teachers who are of professional performance caliber,
and
academic teachers who could be teaching at any university, and who
function
as parents, counselors, friends, mentors, even dinner hosts, go to the
academy.
Go to http://www.searchby.com/stream/interlochen.html for starters.
Then ask again about the Academy (I assume that's what you're interested
in).
And, yes, there are scholarships.
Good luck.
Kent
