National Honor Society for Dance Arts

IMG_7313 (1)_edited.png

CFDC is a member of the National Dance Education Organization and we sponsor our own chapter of the National Honor Society for Dance Arts! The NHSDA is a program dedicated to recognizing students for their outstanding artistic merit, leadership and academic achievements. They also strive to foster an appreciation for dance as a true art form, worthy of recognition and prestige.

 

We offer a Elementry, Junior & Secondary Chapter. Students with a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or greater who meet the requirements may apply to become a member. Members will meet one Saturday a month during the fall-spring dance season. CFDC NHSDA members meet to discuss current events, local volunteering opportunities and so much more. Our program provides student leadership opportunities as well as a partnership with adult mentors.

Elementary Honor Society

Unique to CFDC we are pleased to offer an Elementary Chapter, for students in grades 3 – 5 who have a passion for dance and strive to do their very best in school! We have created this new chapter to help as a stepping stone to dancers for when they are ready to join our Junior chapter when they reach middle school. The elementary chapter will offer dancers an opportunity to learn how to balance education with outside activities and what it means to commit to a community of their peers with similar interests and goals. Members will meet one Saturday a month during the fall-spring dance season.
