It’s October 9, and the musical The Phantom of the Opera opened in London on this date in 1986.  It moved to Broadway in New York City where it was staged 13,981 times from 1988 to 2023.  It remains the longest-running musical in Broadway history.  As you might guess, the musical focuses on a phantom in an opera house, but we know that some students in our accredited middle school program and accredited high school program prefer not to read literature that contains ghosts.  In those cases, please contact us so that we can accommodate you as best we can.  We want to make sure you have every chance to succeed and every chance to experience the quality curriculum that has been a part of American School history for 127 years.  Thank you for understanding and for homeschooling with us!
