“Thanks to the generous gift from Ms. Leslie Zasa of a beautiful looking and sounding baby grand piano, Altadena Arts Magnet is able to accompany their musical shows in true artistic style. From guest pianists to our own teachers, this piano is lovingly played and enjoyed by the entire Altadena Arts community.
As one of three schools in PUSD to receive a multi-million dollar federal arts magnet grant, Altadena can fully implement its arts theme by adding Ms. Zasa’s piano gift to our campus. The children, teachers and staff are so very grateful!”
–Benita Sheckel, Principal Altadena Arts Magnet
