NEW DANCE COMMITTEE: MEMBERS NEEDED!

Join the dance party and be a committee member for Wolftrap's inaugural school dance!  Have fun collaborating and preparing for our first dance. Slots are open on the sign up genius.

Parents: if you have older kids (middle or high school) who love to dance and/or need community hours please sign them up for help with dance instruction and general guidance for students.

Students! We need your help! Let’s see how many posters you can make to celebrate our first dance?!?! Use any poster board and have fun with your friends creating a fun and memorable themed dance party advertisement. We will display them throughout the school. Posters can be dropped off in the front office no later than Wednesday, January 7th.
