We provide comprehensive interactive programs in all five boroughs for Pre-K through 12th Grade in the performing arts that focus on enhancing technical skills, social emotional learning, confidence, connection, mindfulness, and creativity.

BBK has created tailored In School Programming for 17+ years, working with a myriad of schools, all with unique communities, and culture: The schools we work with inspire the curriculum we build.

All BBK sudent-centered programs are designed to meet each student where they are, provide space for the group’s creativity, and hone their performing arts skills. All classes are tailored specifically to the age group of enrolled students to create challenging but achievable goals each week. 

BBK at Your School

The community that you’ve built at your school is varied, diverse, creative, and ever changing. At Broadway Bound Kids we understand that the best way to ensure buy-in from your students is to create art that they care about. Student voice is centered in all of our programming, and no matter which option, BBK will take the time to tailor the arts programming to your community. Through conversations with your administration, teachers, and BBK staff, we will work to create a residency that ensures all students have a place to belong and be heard.

​Our two types of residencies are: 
In School Programming:

One to two BBK Teaching Artists will come during school hours to serve up to four back to back classes of students. Working with your school’s classroom teachers, we will build a curriculum that is supplemental to their learning goals. These classes can be offered to any type of class. Successful past classes served have been ELA, Humanities, ICT, and Phys Ed classes. 
After School Programs:

BBK will provide two BBK Teaching Artists to hold programming outside of school hours. In these classes, students will sign up voluntarily. We work with your school’s extended hours schedule to build the most successful model of classes. In these classes, BBK will still tailor curriculum to your school’s mission, and learning goals. ​
