Welcome

Thanks for dropping by and welcome to our new website. Feel free to contact us with any questions you may have about the HSRAP program. We’ve posted the application that was submitted to PPS online so anyone who’s interested can download and read it.

A very special thanks goes out to all those of you who have taken the time to help us get to this stage in the process.

We're always looking to connect with members of the local community interested in being a part of the HSRAP movement. Please visit the support page. for more info.

The Mission

Imagine a high school where art, music and culture are natural components of education rather than stand alone subjects. Where community is unified through celebration of arts and artistic expression. A school where parents and students openly communicate with teachers because every voice is valued. Imagine teenage sons and daughters coming home from school filled with pride and self-confidence, showcasing their day’s accomplishments and looking forward to the next day. Imagine their excitement when working in an internship lead by an artist or businessperson they admire. Imagine talking about life after graduation as a conversation with limitless possibilities. Imagine a high school where all students have a Personalized Learning Plan so that the uniqueness of their learning styles is guided into projects designed for their growth and success. Imagine a school where kinesthetic learning allows students to move freely in body, mind, and spirit. A school that meets students where they currently stand and helps lead them toward discovering their fullest potential to become creative and competent in meeting the demands of adult life.

The High School for Recording Arts Portland (HSRAP) will be that school.
