Charter High School of the Arts

Charter High School o9f the Arts (usually noted as CHAMPS) is a public high school that operates on the campus of Luberthian Korean Church. It is located on Van Nuys Boulevard, Los Angeles. Though it shares the facilities of the Korean Church, the two schools' activities tend to be different. It is operated as a Charter High School. CHAMPS has only been a high school campus since September of 2005. The school consists of 9th, 10th, and 11th graders. Once the semester of September 2008 starts, there will be a 12th grade. As it grows, it develops more and more each year.

CHAMPS requires much for students. The school specializes in dance, music, drama, vocal, art, computer, and visual arts. It is the only Arts high school that allows students from any district within the Los Angeles County. Due to the school being based as only a 1-2 acre campus, students are given a minimum freedom, but collaborates with activities that not many high schools can achieve.

Students who want to enroll in a specific academy (dance, music, drama) need to audition to get in. Each art department has a separate audition process and students can only audition for one department. Enrolled students can change into a different department with the approval of the department chairs and counselors.

Due to the school only running for two years, there has not been a past alumni. The first class to graduate will be the class of 2009
