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
These dancers are a phenomenal group of 10th-12th graders who train daily to hone their skills. As students in a career technical education program, my students declare themselves as dance majors. These learners are physically expressive, socially conscious, and creative individuals. As a community, we view education and art-making as tools for empowerment, self-reflection, and social change.
Help us fund costumes for our 10th anniversary performance season!
This project is near and dear to my heart because costuming our dancers is such a challenging feat due to funding limitations. It takes a consistent annual budget to be able to purchase costumes in a variety of size ranges and levels of modesty. We would deeply appreciate your support in gathering costume pieces for our new choreographic work which will premiere in the 2023-2024 season. Our dancers will be using these costumes to perform in both a site specific and stage adaptation of this new work.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
