3 HISTORY Our Mission To improve our students quality of life through education. To prepare students to pass their exams for licensure and obtain an entry level position in their respective fields and to prepare the students for a career in cosmetology, esthetics or nail specialty. Mr. Frank Molinari opened his first cosmetology school in July of By 1969 Mr. Frank is credited with opening a total of 4 cosmetology schools and a chain of salons located in New Jersey and New York. Since then he is credited with teaching thousands of students the fine art of cosmetology. Mr. Molinari's beliefs have been proven that a student must first learn the fine science of cosmetology and then apply it as a fine art. He has studied with hair designers in Paris, London, Brussels, Amsterdam, Chicago, and New York.* In 1990 Mr. Anthony Fiore joined the Capri team. His studies in cosmetology include Capri School Spring Valley, Trevor Sorbie London, Tony & Guy London, Jingles London, L'Oreal Technical Center London, Vidal Sassoon London, Graham Webb International Washington D.C., Jean Louis Deforges Paris, Pivot Point Center Chicago. He also was the first American to be accepted as a platform artist for The Graham Webb International Artistic Team.* His beliefs parallel Mr. Molinari s and continues the tradition that he had started by running a superior school which benefits the beauty industry as a whole. Capri has been training winning students for Fifteen International Championships, plus many state and local championships.* Capri students are employed by salons all over the tri-state area: New York (New York City), New Jersey, and Connecticut. Students have enrolled from all over the world.* *Information available upon request. 3
