Congratulations to our winners! And an incredible job well done to everyone who participated. Our faculty and staff worked hard, and so did the many students who danced with them!
Additional thanks go to the fabulous judges, Lisa Wygant and her tech crew, Dani C. Photography (whose photos you see posted here), and of course, the fabulous Jocelyn Smith! Having participated this year, I can speak personally to the tremendous amount of work and patience and heart that Jocelyn puts into this event. (I’m not kidding about the patience; I threw questions at Jocelyn and vented anxieties about every two seconds!!) What she contributes to our school through the dance program is nothing short of amazing, amazing, amazing. We love her!
