Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

My dancers are so special because we are made up of a mixed urban community within Manchester, CT. Dancing in my program this year has opened up my students to the art of dance as for them it is their first time being introduced to dance classes.

We are working on dance pieces for our June show!

My dancers have been training hard to put on their June show. Most of my dancers are graduating this year so we are making sure we send them off with a bang through the art of dance.

Please help us reach our goal of getting our costumes for June!
