Current International Sister Schools

‍
Significant among the Sister Schools is the relationship with Cuba’s National School of Ballet (Escuela Nacional de Cuba – ENB), which, in 2015, was a pioneering program and cultural exchange. Because of this program, ENB welcomed an American ballet dancer from the Ruth Page School of Dance to its training program. Catherine Conley became the first American to receive an official invitation from the Cuban National Ballet School since the normalization of relations in 2015 and subsequently went on to dance with the Cuban National Ballet (Ballet Nacional de Cuba).
