The annual sock hop event was anticipated all year long. Finally it happened. And this year it was a benefit for the 5th graders (for their annual overnight field trip) with all the grades welcome.

The Parent Observation Week at BSJS allows parents, relatives and friends of students at the Ballet San Jose School to observe a regular class. This is one of two opportunities through the year to observe students in class.

They are now at a bridge to serious professional study. Two more years and they will be en-pointe. They are all eligible to audition for the Summer Intensive Camp in July.

AMS won a spa basket at the school raffle! The principal announced it on the school’s PA system and when she heard her name, she whooped it up and screamed! Her whole class screamed! The principal then asked her to come to the school office and claim her price – when she saw it, AMS yelled “Sweet Jesus!”. The principal and school staff got a huge kick out of it.
