Sixty local preschool and elementary students have the opportunity to take part in the dance workshop. Each participant is assigned to an NLRHS dance student who remains with their “little friend” throughout the entire workshop. The elementary students are taught a dance that allows them to be featured in the spring dance concert. The NLRHS Dance Program is a gateway for these young students to become involved in the arts at an early age.
Participants will perform in the high school's spring dance concert on May 8 at 6:30 PM
Registration forms/fee due no later than April 4th. Email Christen Pitts at pittsch@nlrsd.org for more information.
