It was his job that led the family to Mission Viejo, California when Sarah was ten years old.

After a few months of commuting from Orange County to Los Angeles for auditions, she secured her first professional series regular role, starring as "Rachel" on Saved by the Bell: The New Class (1993).
From the time she was in the eighth grade, she was tutored on the set. After she wrapped production on the series, Lancaster, who had been taking college courses at U.C. Irvine to expedite her high school graduation, made the official move to Los Angeles to further pursue her acting career.
