It’s time once again to prepare for our annual dance recital! We are very excited to announce that this year is our 18th annual Dance Recital at Santa Barbara High School. Learning to perform in front of an audience is an important part of Arts Education. It provides opportunity for students to showcase their hard work and their development as dancers. Students build confidence and self-esteem while understanding the importance of practice and refinement. This has been such a rewarding experience for us all and we are excited to showcase to the community. Enclosed you will find information regarding our upcoming dance recital tickets. We hope to see you there!
