In 1990, visionary teacher Sarah Barber, along with her colleagues, acted on their passion for integrating the performing arts into the classroom as the arts have the power to connect. The Sarah Barber Performing Arts Endowment Fund honors past, present, and future performing arts educators including Sarah Barber, Nan DeLucia, Susan Wiles, Victoria Wepler, Brett Merrill, Emily Hope Webster, JR Howe, and Brittany Hebel. Sarah Barber and her team helped The Country School put the A in STEAM.
