I hope you all had a wonderful winter break!

Featured Dancer Audition sign up times have been posted outside the music room.  If you are interested in auditioning for featured dancer for the 5th grade dance, sign up for a time.  Sign ups are first come - first served.  

If you are wondering about what songs to use, just make sure that your dance style matches the song that you are using from the appropriate decade.  I am posting a list of songs/dance styles that we NEED feature dances for. You are welcome to use other songs.... If you have any more questions, there is more information on the Dance Website: https://sites.google.com/a/dcsdk12.org/5th-grade-dance/home
