Dance classes are open to all students. Students can use dance to fill an elective credit on their schedule. Students in dance class will learn the fundamental movements in several different genres, including ballet, lyrical, contemporary, jazz, hip hop and modern. Students will also learn principles of choreography and be taught the process of creating their own movement. Students will learn the muscles necessary for proper dance movement as well as history on each genre of dance they study. Students will be graded using both dance skills and written assessments. They will also take part in a choreography project as well as a cultural dance project.
