Students participating in the program must be mentally and physically capable of balancing the demands of daily classes along with academic curricula. Students are expected to sustain their academic grades, whether online or attending school, in order to stay in the program. SBI has the unique privilege of working with Castle High School in this endeavor. Dancers can attend Castle High School, pursue a high school Diploma (including an Honors Diploma), all while being released early to train at SBI Ballet Institute.
