What Our Students Say
“The School of Arts and Enterprise has unlocked a gateway to my creativity and artistic expression. I joined the Department of Dance in 6th grade, where I was welcomed into a family of talented and aspiring artists. The SAE is the most accessible outlet for students who are inspired to further their artistic education. I would not be where I am as a dancer, student, or person if it weren’t for the professional guidance of my mentors and the support of my peers. When I reflect on the seven years that I attended The SAE, I think about what a privilege it was to be a part of this unique and nurturing community.” Ysabelle Lizares — Dance Major — Class of 2025
