Each year, we award an exemplary young man with our BBSI Honorable Distinction Award. On the last day of our program, we award a male dancer with a full tuition scholarship to the following BBSI and a commemorative framed certificate.
We choose this dancer based on work ethic, sense of camaraderie, leadership, respect, potential to have a professional ballet career, and commitment to the program.
