Mission
The Rock School is dedicated to enriching the lives of all students and preparing those students who are specially gifted for careers as professional artists. The school focuses on the preparation of the individual- his or her artistry and technical proficiency, but with an emphasis on the vital importance of a quality academic education provided in part by the school's on-site high school education program. Through its community outreach program, RockReach, the school is committed to making dance more accessible to local communities by leveling the playing field so that everyone has equal access to art.
