Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

The dance program has grown immensely due to the dancers being exposed to a variety of dance genres. What I love about each of my dancers is that they continue to aspire to reach higher levels of technical merit. They are able to apply dance corrections in a responsive manner. This is due to them being eager to learn.

The dancers desperately need new character shoes since the old character shoes are falling apart.

We also have an increase in the number of dancers per class and will be needing to have additional shoes.
