The Glen Cove School District already has an outstanding reputation for excellence in the performing arts and it is the purpose of MPAPA to give students expanded opportunities in artistic endeavors. Its initial objective is to provide funding, manpower and support for performing art competitions, invitational performances and student scholarships for Glen Cove High School students. It is the intention of MPAPA to benefit all students in the Glen Cove School District through increased opportunities for students to develop and demonstrate their artistic excellence.

Membership is open to all individuals interested in promoting performing arts education in the Glen Cove School District. Monthly meetings are held at the High School.
