NHS Dance Club officially started three weeks ago on the thirteenth of September and was big success! Many new members joined this year, especially boys. We started lessons off with the Salsa because it was such a big hit last year and we hadn’t gotten too far into it. So many people liked it that we still have students joining. I believe next week our instructors will be moving on to the Waltz, which will be new to everyone. Mrs. Pecoraro and all of the officers are ready for a great year ahead of us!

Tina & Lionel Hebert instruct the dance club and Ms. Pecoraro, a lifelong dancer, teach a lesson  the first hours and practices with them for the last half hour each week. The students are having lots of fun, getting some good exercise, and learning some steps they can use for a lifetime.  The dancers rotate around the dance floor and everyone dances with everyone.
