Performing Arts

Bayside Academy offers many opportunities for self-expression through dance and drama for all ages and grade levels. Ballet lessons are available for students as young as PK3, and drama classes are available for students in Middle and Upper School. Performing Arts courses encourage student exploration and provide opportunities for students to perform in a variety of settings.

The Bayside Drama Department puts on two major productions each school year. These productions provide students with the opportunity to perform and to learn stage production. Typically, one play is performed by Middle School students and the other is performed by students in Upper School.

Bayside Academy Performing Arts Community

Did you know that Bayside Academy has performing arts opportunities at all grade levels, and we are constantly expanding our offerings? Our students attend local and regional competitions in music and theatre, and have been recognized as some of the best in the state. We are also involved at the international level through our Thespian Troupes. By becoming a member of the Bayside Academy Performing Arts Community (BA PAC), you help ensure that we can continue to provide excellence in our programs for years to come.

Pilot Center

The Pilot Center was the first of its kind on the Eastern Shore, and the 14,500-square-foot building provides our young thespians with the chance to perform in a real theatre, our young musicians with state-of-the-art acoustics in which to sound their best during practice and concerts, our young artists with a gallery in which to host exhibits, and our community with a home for guest speakers and special events.
