A NOTE ABOUT THE LOOKING AHEAD WEBSITE: Our website is a family-based website, so parents must sign up for their young performers. Parents will hold the master account over their young performers' account, while the parents and their children will each have a user name and password. The parents control the access levels and determine how their young performers will navigate the Looking Ahead site.
