Local Salon Treats Students at South Valley School to Hair and Makeup for “Spring Fling” Dance

It was a day and night to remember for students at the South Valley School. The school held its annual “Spring Fling” dance on Friday night and a local hair academy volunteered precious time and talents to make sure everyone looked their very best for the night of dancing, pictures, refreshments, and having fun with friends.

The Taylor Andrews Academy of Hair Design was at South Valley all morning on Friday giving students the opportunity to have their hair styled, makeup, and nails done for the dance. It was a big act of kindness that made students look and feel their very best for their night to remember. The theme for this year’s dance was “A Walk in the Clouds.” Teachers, staff, and school alumni attended, along with current South Valley students.

Everyone danced the night away making cherished memories. Thank you to Taylor Andrews Academy of Hair Design for their generosity and caring about South Valley students!

Rose Creek Elementary School Students Do Si Do in Really Fun Dance Performance

Students square dancingThey have been hard at work and having fun rehearsing for a Country-Style Dance Performance at Rose Creek Elementary School. The school’s 4th grade students have been working with a square dance ‘caller’ learning how to Swing, Promenade, Sashay, and Do Si Do, dancing in a square with one couple on each side, facing the middle of the square. These dances have been around for a very long time, first documented in the 17th-century. It is a delight to watch the students catching on to the calls and having a great time as they circle right and circle left.

Parents are invited to attend the 4th grade dance performance tonight, April 13 at 6:30 p.m. at Rose Creek Elementary School.

Congratulations to the talented dancers and good luck with your performance!
