Testimonial

Class of 2025 Sebastian Street

The biggest piece of advice I would give younger students is to put themselves in positions that are uncomfortable and scary, where they don’t feel like they know what they are doing.

Film and Television Production in Sunny LA Sebastian Street

SAS gave me many opportunities to work with large casts and crews, which is unusual in a high school. Whether it was checking out S$40,000 worth of film equipment to shoot a Studio41 segment or leading a 30-student team filming inspiring performances at IASAS Cultural Convention, I know for certain that the school’s incredible resources and opportunities helped me find my passion for film directing.

Testimonial

Class of 2021 Alisha Bhandari

To get the most out of SAS, you need to be involved in activities! Join lots of clubs in the beginning and then gradually narrow them down to those you enjoy.

Service, Writing, and Learning in India Alisha Bhandari

At SAS, the teachers and faculty genuinely care about what they teach and the state of their students. Every day they greeted me with a smile and asked how I was doing—and they cared about my answer.

Testimonial

Class of 2025 Yoonseo Cho

I would encourage younger students not to look at the clock too much. There is a fine line between looking forward to things in the future and wishing time away.

Chasing the Healthcare Dream Yoonseo Cho

One lesson I learned at SAS is to never give up the things you love, even if they might not be directly related to what you plan to pursue in life. I feel that at SAS, there is a place for everyone. Whether it’s finding your group of friends or finding a club that you love, there are incredible opportunities waiting at your fingertips.

Testimonial

Class of 2025 Triston Wong

A piece of advice to younger students is to take life at your own pace. The secret to getting the most out of the countless opportunities offered by SAS is to enjoy each as it comes.

Game Development and Making Connections Triston Wong

Games have their own unique style of storytelling, and this is something that I wish to spark in others. I’ve met many individuals who share these same aspirations here at SAS, and I hope to meet many more in the future. The connections I have built with the people at SAS have given me a great deal of appreciation, knowledge, and sense of self.

Testimonial

Class of 2000 Anita Surendran

SAS has taught me the value of fostering deep relationships, which will get you further in life than almost anything else.

Entertainment Attorney Anita Surendran

Through grit and determination, I've found numerous creative approaches to help protect my clients—in both traditional and non-traditional roles. I attribute my drive to succeed to my time here at SAS. This is where I learned how to be disciplined and well-rounded to thrive in a competitive environment.
