DREAM
DREAM logo

DREAM is a 32-week, four-hour a week program that engages students through dance to become better citizens and leaders. With over 150 hours of instruction per student/per year this intensive program provides students with a supportive environment.

Through three field trip rehearsals, a performance at the Washington Wizards half-time show, a self-produced end of year community performance, and special “community shows,” students develop social and civic competencies, while also building close and meaningful relationships with their peers and instructors.

During the 2012-2013 school year the DREAM program is offered to over 150 students in grades third to eighth at six DC public schools in Wards 1, 2, 4, 6, 7 and 8.
