  • Congrats to TEN hardworking students who have earned the opportunity to begin working in pre-pointe and pointe shoes! They were very carefully evaluated by Mrs. Therese, Mrs. Rachael, and Mrs. Shellie over the last three weeks and were fitted in shoes at Dance-N-Things this week. Next class, a sewing lesson! And, lots more hard work ahead! ✨ . Pointe shoes are a big deal and must be earned. These dancers have been taking multiple classes a week for years to meet this goal. Now, they must work even harder.
