Visit the AFA!
Students are highly recommended by the AFA to “shadow” any of the programs before their audition. By shadowing, we mean that the student leaves his/ her home school and visits Governor Thomas Johnson High School (GTJHS) to spend the class time for that particular program observing the students and the class activities for blocks 1 and 2.
