Q: What types of programs does BAA offer?
A: BAA currently offers a Dance Program and a Musical Theater Program. You can also ask us about our Academics Only Program if you would like to join us for academics without adding the additional arts training we offer. BAA is excited to work with you and your performing arts student to balance an arts and academic schedule. Please contact us for more information.
Q: Do BAA students have to choose a specific online school?
A: No, students may choose the online school that works best for their learning style, budget and specific needs. However, the online school must be flexible enough to accommodate our arts classes, allowing the students to attend the daily morning dance classes before beginning their academic work. Any tuition and/or fees for the online academic program are paid directly to the school by the families- this is not included in BAA’s tuition.
