The Academy of Music at Hamilton High School

The Academy of Music is a magnet program of the Los Angeles Unified School District created to promote integration and diversity through the immersion, practice and delivery of the academic and artistic expression.

We are committed to working collaboratively with faculty staff, parents and students to achieve the highest levels of academic and artistic accomplishments.

	WOW ON THE DAVID FOSTER BENEFIT! Thanks to all who attended and spent a magical evening with David Foster, Chris Botti, Dave Koz, Brian McNight, Billy Childs, some of the greatest musicians on the planet and many of our own extraordinary talented students who sang along with them. It was an evening to remember.
	Our Academy Merchandising is here. We're not trying to be a Disney Store, but how can we help it? We have Music Academy T-shirts, sunglasses and cups available in the Academy Office and at Hami-Fest on May 20.
	ONLY ONE MORE WEEKEND TO SEE THE CROWD-PLEASING HAIRSPRAY! It's 1962 and Baltimore teen, Tracy Turnblad has only one desire-to dance on the "Corny Collins Show". When her dream comes true, Tracy is transformed from social outcast to the reigning "Teen Queen" and in the process teaches Baltimore a thing or two about integration. See the calendar for showtimes.
