Mission Statement:
The mission of the dance studio of New Bern High School is to teach quality dance. The students will learn the dance techniques of creative movement, ballet, modern, and jazz. They will learn and will create dances that showcase what they have learned about these techniques. In addition to these technique classes, the students will learn terminology and dance history and will be required to do writing assignments and to take tests on the learned material.
In all dance classes the goal is to produce quality dancers and choreographers. Upon graduation, each student will: have developed in their technique of the different styles of dance; have an knowledge of improvising and choreographing dances; will be aware of a dancer’s good health and of the history of dance; and will be able to progress in a career as a performer, as a choreographer, and/or as a teacher later in life. It is important to have fun and to enjoy dancing. It is also important to learn. Out of respect for everyone within the dance studio, these policies have been implemented for everyone taking dance classes. |
