In-Person
Students must be enrolled at Parkwood Heights Elementary School to register for this course.
Young dancers will embark on an exciting journey in this beginner-level dance program. As budding artists, students will explore dance fundamentals, unlocking their potential as movers, thinkers, creators, and performers. They’ll investigate different ways to move, experiment with choreography, and learn to express themselves through dance. The program culminates in the annual Performing Arts Showcase, where students will showcase their newfound skills, building confidence and experiencing the thrill of live performance.
In-person courses will follow the DCPS schedule for holidays and school closures.
This program is supported by the Kids Hope Alliance.
