The Performing Arts Troupe, ages 5-18, is a group that is more involved with multiple weekly rehearsals and many performances throughout year. If you are interested in more performance time and a higher technical level of dance this would be the group for you. 

This is an adaptive class for students that do not excel in a traditional program for any reason. Someone using a wheelchair, crutches, walker, a student with Downs Syndrome, visual impairments or any other special need might be interested in this class. Autistic students must be evaluated.
