At the Middle School additional instruments are offered to the class and ensembles are formed which meet daily. In the Upper School several performing ensembles exist, with numerous performance and touring opportunities. Over 350 students from the three campuses are involved in dance classes. Fundamental through advanced level training is available for all students, Kindergarten to 12th grade. Performance ensemble oportunities are available to all students in grades three through twelve.
Dance offers the opportunity of expressing oneself without the use of words.
Dance students learn ballet and modern dance. The dance ensemble, an audition group, provides dancers with experience in choreographing their own works, as well as interpreting the works of others. Auditions are held prior to the opening of the school year. However, for students interesting in joining after the school year has begun, spots are available on the backstage and lighting crews for each production. Four days a week the carefully selected WATV crew broadcasts information to the entire Upper School.
