We’re so happy to continue to hear about our students’ achievements. They work so hard and deserve recognition for all of their accomplishments!
Several girls at SDT that are members of the Bak chapter of National Jr Honor Society for Dance Arts. Membership is based upon Scholarship, Service, Leadership, Character, and Citizenship.
In addition, this year Lara Symons was the Bak chapter President, Nyla George was Vice President, and Libby Jo Heller was Historian.
Allyson Steinberg, Lara Symons, and Nyla George joined 4 other Bak students to perform at the Florida Dance Education Organization’s Honors Concert, held in St Petersburg, Florida in February.
Lara was selected as state-wide 1st place middle school winner for her essay and original choreography. As a result, she was given the opportunity to present her self-choreographed solo at the concert.
Along similar lines, Nyla George was just awarded a 75 percent dance scholarship to attend American Heritage School of Boca/Delray and Lara Symons a 50 percent academic scholarship to the same.
Congratulations to each of these young ladies for their dedication, talent, leadership, and drive. So proud of them!
