Parent Support

At every level, our students develop the focus, determination, and perseverance that equip them for success in our studios, on stage, and beyond. SAB alumni go on to pursue remarkable careers in a wide range of fields, and that is in no small part due to the foundation of their ballet training at the School.

SAB parents Kindra and Michael Hall share their family’s
experience at the School and why they support the Parent Fund:

PARENT FUND

The School is honored to welcome more than 850 families each year who make up our passionate and diverse community through our Winter Term, Summer Course, and New York Junior Session. You may not know that annual tuition covers just 1/3 of the true cost of SAB’s training. As a not-for-profit institution, the School relies on generous individuals—including dedicated parents who understand the true value of dance education—to raise funds for scholarships, the outstanding training our esteemed faculty provides, and the essential student life and wellness support our students need to thrive inside and outside the studio.

Join fellow parents and grandparents by supporting the Parent Fund with a gift of any amount. Learn more about how to make a gift below. Your tax-deductible donation will have a direct impact on SAB’s ability to offer the finest ballet training to aspiring dancers, regardless of their financial means. Please be assured, SAB is committed to providing equal opportunity for its students. Gifts to the School have absolutely no bearing on future acceptance to, or advancement in, our audition-based training program, but rather ensure the exceptional quality of training you have witnessed firsthand.
