Each class in the Children and Teen Program (Ages 6-18) takes place weekly over the course of two 16-week semesters, allowing students consistency that supports growth over time. Classes in the lower levels are 45 minutes and gradually progress to 90 minutes at the upper levels. Auditions are not required, except for the Specialized Study programs. Families looking for classes for children 18 months-6 years old should visit our Early Childhood page.

Families joining The School should see our What Level Should I Sign Up In? page for more information about proper placement. Join our email list to receive email alerts about registration.
