I went to see the Cincinnati Men's Chorus 2018 holiday show (courtesy of Yelp - thank you!). The space was absolutely fantastic. I love the regal feel of the old theater architecture: it's a hybrid of Neo-Classical meets Art Deco: simply stunning! There are so many cool architectural features including a Greek/Roman nautical theme, and beautiful Rookwood drinking fountains. Who could help being inspired when studying/learning/performing in such a grand space? It's so great to see the obvious pride and alumni involvement that Walnut Hills has reflected in the preservation of their beautiful campus.

Walnut is the college preparatory magnet school in the Cincinnati Public Schools system. Cincy has a controversial tracking system like Germany. I support it. Others do not. Walnut has 7-12 in the same building allowing students access to activities and clubs with other students across all the grades. It is large enough that almost every student can find a niche and friends. Activities and niches are an antidote to jr high-high student on student psychic oppression. Other Cincy 7-12 magnet schools may also remedy. Walnut academics are the star. There are outstanding AP options and all the prep in earlier grades to be ready. The other star is diversity - students from every neighborhood - diverse like the real world. I learned hugely from fellow students outside my neighborhood. My year the college bound rate was 94%. Of the close friends who did not go to college right after graduating, one is a psychiatrist and the other is a masters-degreed international consultant. One of the most notable things about Walnut is its Alumni Association. It's a network when you are in the school and after graduating. The Alumni Association raises money for capital improvements, like constructing a new science building, and it raises operating money for student programs. There isn't family money for a student to travel to a chess tournament? Alum money is there for that. Walnut is because every parent, every teacher, every alum wants every student to succeed and change the world. They do. Frankly every public school should be and can be the same! Of course Cincy has many suburbs with many fine high schools of their own. And Cincy has private schools. Say you were moving to Cincy. Where should I live with kids? Sometimes Yelpers want to live in the city proper. What are the K-6? If you have kiddos, study the data for each school and district. What K-6 is doing what, What 7x12s do they feed. What colleges are those feeding? Of high schools, Walnut is one of the top handful in the Cincy area, top state, and does very well in the country lists.

Mike Holtz has been the principal for several years and the school is not the same. It's not a special inner city school. It's just an inner city school. Students are rough and lawless. In these unfortunate times where schools have had to amp up security because of mass shootings, Holy Cross doesn't even lock their doors. They have a no drugs/alcohol policy but take a whiff anywhere on that campus and see how well that's enforced. I wouldn't send my child there if Holy Cross paid me.

The School for the Creative and Performing Arts (SCPA) is home to 1400 students and is the only…read morepublic K-12 art school in the United States. Grades K-3 are admitted by application and grades 4 and up must also audition for admission. Pupils outside of the Cincinnati Public Schools system can attend for a tuition fee; those inside county can attend for free. The school has three large performance venues: - The Corbett Theater (seats 750) - The Mayerson Theater (seats 300) - The Black Box Theater (seats 130) The Corbett Theater stage has high ceilings which allow for "flying" actors, as well as an orchestra pit that sinks down to another level of the building! In addition to the stage, SCPA has courses in their scenery and prop room. Students create and build about 95% of the stage. The convenient location of the stage shop allows them to move scenery on and off the stage with ease. The art and dance rooms have a wall of windows which overlook 12th Street, Music Hall and Washington Park. Equipped with six dance studios, students can rehearse in this studio knowing their show can be replicated, step for step, in the Corbett Theater, as the two venues are identical in size. Many of the studios are heavily insulated so that loud classes will not disturb another. The school building has a very modern design with industrial elements and bright colors. Massive pieces of student artwork hang in the hallways. My favorite detail about the school is their students: they appeared happy and focused. In contrast to other public schools, all of the SCPA pupils were dressed nicely for class with combed hair; no one was wearing pajamas.
