1 Balboa Gifted/A Magnet Labrador Street Northridge, CA PARENTS OF TIRD, FOURT, AND FIFT GRADERS Please Read Carefully LAUSD is holding auditions/demonstrations to identify third, fourth, and fifth grade students as talented in the areas of visual and performing arts. Auditions/demonstrations will be held at Esteban Torres igh School and Belvedere Middle School on Saturday, May 19, Please do not apply unless you are sure you can attend the audition/demonstration.
