ART HIGH SCHOOL PORTFOLIO PREP. [Fall 2026 / Little Neck]

Every year, Ashcan helps many 7th~8th graders who are planning to apply for specialized art high schools such as Frank Sinatra School of the Arts, LaGuardia High School, and Art & Design High School, with our up-to-date information regarding the application and audition process of these schools. Each school has different procedures, requirements, and deadlines for auditions and portfolio specified, which we guide our students from start to finish inaccurate details. For these students, we follow our philosophy of individual creativity and experimentation, but also focus a bit more on the development of a strong visual art portfolio.
