The school is operated by the New York City Department of Education.
The school has a dual mission of arts and academics, preparing students for a career in the arts or conservatory study as well as a pursuit of higher education.
Informally known as LaGuardia Arts, or LaGuardia High School, Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts is the only school among the nine specialized high schools in New York City that receives special funding from the New York State legislature through the Hecht Calandra Act.
The school in 2013–2014 had 2,730〔http://schools.nyc.gov/NR/rdonlyres/27E0D192-0435-4C96-9FE3-6B3FAD4009D2/0/20142015HSDManhattan.pdf〕 students and 163 staff members, with a teacher–student ratio of 1:15.
==History==
The High School of Music & Art was founded by Fiorello H. LaGuardia in 1936. As the mayor of New York City he wanted to establish a public school in which students could hone their talents in music, art and the performing arts. In 1948, a similar institution – the School of Performing Arts – was created in an effort to harness students’ talents in dance. The schools merged on paper in 1961〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=LaGuardia Arts: The .Mission )〕 and were to be combined in one building. However, this took many years and it was not until 1984 that they moved to a new building in Lincoln Center. The Board of Education honored Mayor LaGuardia posthumously by naming the new building after him. Prior to the building's completion in 1984, Music & Art (a/k/a "The Castle on the Hill") was located on Convent Avenue and 135th Street in what has since become part of City College (CCNY)'s South Campus; the building is home to A. Philip Randolph High School. Performing Arts was located in midtown on 46th Street, both in Manhattan. Mayor La Guardia regarded Music & Art as the "most hopeful accomplishment" of his long administration as mayor.〔Steigman, Benjamin: ''Accent on Talent — New York's High School of Music & Art'' Wayne State University Press, 1984 ISBN 0-686-87975-9〕
The 1980 dramatic film ''Fame'' was based on student life at the School of Performing Arts prior to its merger into LaGuardia High School. It was so successful that a television series, ''Fame'', was launched in 1982, a Broadway show of ''Fame'' was produced in 2003–2004;the original film was remade and released in 2009. Paul McCartney said he wanted a school like LaGuardia aka "the FAME School" in Liverpool, England, his hometown. With the school's principal, Mark Weatherstone-Witty he created the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts.〔http://www.telegraph.co.uk/education/universityeducation/universities-and-colleges/9926506/The-Liverpool-Institute-for-Performing-Arts-guide.html〕
Alumni from LaGuardia and its two legacy schools, High School of Music and Art and School of Performing Arts,〔(High School of Performing Arts )〕 are active in supporting the students and the school through scholarships and support for special programs, school events, and reunions held at the school and throughout the world. The school's alumni organization has a full-time executive director and offices at the school.〔(Alumni and Friends )〕 It functions as an independent charitable organization organized under the laws of New York.
