Our VISION

SAA will provide students interested in visual and performing arts with rigorous academic skills in line with The Florida Standards of Education strongly infused with the arts.  SAA believes that the opportunity to experience the arts on a continual basis promotes and enhances academic success.  All students in elementary school will receive art and music instruction daily.  Middle school students may elect from a wide variety of visual and  performing arts to round out their academic day. The goal of SAA is to prepare students to become well-rounded, confident, academically-prepared, and innovative adults who are able to reach their full potential as caring and responsible citizens. ​ 

Our MISSION

The mission of Sarasota Academy of the Arts (SAA) is to provide a motivating, challenging, and creative learning climate with a safe, caring, family atmosphere.  

"The arts are an essential element of education, just like reading, writing, and arithmetic . . . Music, dance, painting and theatre are all keys that unlock profound human understanding and accomplishment" - William Bennett
