The grant will support expanding our After-School Program to Watts. The After-School Program promotes discipline, high expectations, performance, community building, parental involvement, and sequential, long-term training, allowing students to work toward technical mastery of specific dance forms through leveled classes that meet after-school and Saturday. Our rigorous dance curriculum increases students’ proficiency in dance skills; physical fitness; appreciation for dance and the arts; a sense of community; and positive self-development.
