Musical Theater and Private Tutoring

This fall, students have the opportunity to audition for the parts of Annie, Sandy, Ms. Hannigan, Daddy Warbucks and the entire cast of Annie Kids. Several of the original cast members are seniors at NHA this year and our 2018 Annie (Audrey Wells) will be helping to direct the show.

Enjoy this trip back to the Big Apple circa 1933 with NHA's own collection of waifs, gutter snipes, drunks, swindlers, and philanthropists.

Enrollment opens Monday, July 18 for our fall production of Annie Kids.

We will have 50 minute private tutoring sessions available throughout the day with Mrs. Melendez at all campuses.  

Audrey Melendez has been providing tutoring for our homeschool community for several years.  She homeschooled her own children K-12 and tutors all grade levels in most subjects.  If you need tutoring for your high school student in a specific area, please check first to be sure it is a subject she teaches.
