<p>has anyone suggested walnut hill in mass? they are a performing arts high school</p>
<p>Choate has a great arts program. This would include dance, I believe.</p>
<p>keylyme, i would like to bump this. </p>
<p>although the hours per week at most boarding schools is cut down from what i do, sps is not the case.</p>
<p>i've been in contact with the director of dance and she said her company dances 19 hours per week.</p>
<p>4 hours less than what i do now, but i'll manage!</p>
<p>choate, the most widely known hands down</p>
<p>Walnut Hill has an exceptional dance program for ballet. They don't do tap even though musical theatre is a big concentration there. Interlochen Academy for the arts has an equally strong dance program (if not stronger) and a very strong academic program. They've helped produce 38 presidential scholars for the arts.</p>
<p>Interlochen is also an arts boarding school. It does have a very strong dance program:ballet, modern, jazz, etc., With amazing guest artists. Academics to take a huge part, but probably not as big as Andover, Choate, etc., Like live&learn said, they do produce more Presidential Scholars in the Arts than any other school in America. pm me if you want more details.</p>
