Text reading 'JAYDEN PERKINS MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP' with a white background.

Jayden Perkins was a beloved dancer on full scholarship whose light touched everyone who knew him. Though his time with us was far too short, his kindness for others, joy, and movement live on in every step we take.

Jayden Perkins Memorial Scholarships are awarded to dancers that embody Jayden’s love for all, work ethic, positivity, joy, encouragement, and talent.

Your generosity will help other young dancers follow their dreams - just as Jayden did - with heart, courage, and grace.
