Dr. Dre Donates $10 Million To Compton High School
Dr. Dre pledged a $10 million donation for Compton High School’s new performing arts center. Dre’s donation goes toward the new $200 million campus. The facility will be named the “Andre ‘Dr. Dre’ Young Performing Arts Centre.” It will be a 900-person capacity performing arts center. During the ceremony, Dre spoke to his curiosity about how much further he would’ve been if he had the resources he needed in school. He wants young people to have an outlet for their artistic talents. The new Compton High School campus will have up to 1800 students, possibly serving an extra 450. The school will feature a new academic building, gym, aquatics center, football stadium, and track. The campus is scheduled to open at the beginning of 2025.
