I am thankful to have a space where students can move, create and express themselves! I see every student in our school twice a week for dance. Selected 2nd and 3rd graders meet an additional time during the school week as part of a "Dance Club" while selected 4th and 5th graders meet after school as part of the PS 56 "Dance Company."

Our dance program also has a strong emphasis on connecting content students are learning in their classrooms to movement and dance.
