The NHSDA is a program of the National Dance Education Organization whose mission is to recognize outstanding artistic merit, leadership, and academic achievement in students studying dance and to foster an appreciation for dance as a true art form.

Congratulations to everyone! It was a beautiful evening with heartfelt speeches and performances. It was evident to see how much the Dance Program has grown over the years. Additionally, for many students the program has allowed them to not only discover a sense of self and a love of dance, but through hard work, dedication, collaboration, confidence, and friendship Discover their Dreams. We all witnessed how the Dance Program has clearly changed the lives of our senior student dancers and know it will continue to inspire the inductees now and in the future. Thank you to Ms. Kuranishi, Ms. Rodiguez, Mr. Bromsey, and all the students and parents for a wonderful night!
