The year-long course emphasizes fundamentals of social dance, mastery of figures, social graces, and comportment. Students learn to navigate a dance floor, use appropriate lead and follow techniques, and interpret a broad range of music through dances including Swing, Lindy Hop, Waltz, Foxtrot, Cha- Cha, Rumba, and American and Argentine Tango. Students also learn and apply critical social skills and develop body and special awareness through partner and group work. Over the course of the year, the students host dance events for parents and community, which include student exhibitions and performances. Students are also regularly invited to perform in the larger community beyond school. The program’s focus on inclusion has a positive effect students’ relationships at a time that is crucial in their social- emotional development. It involves all 6th, 7th, and 8th graders as a community of learners, and cultivates poise, grace, and confidence that they express beyond the dance class.

  • Planning for Schools Emergencies
    2012/2013 MARIN COUNTY CIVIL GRAND JURY Planning for Schools Emergencies Report Date –June 20, 2013 Public Release Date –June 26, 2013 Marin County Civil Grand Jury ___________________________________________________________________________________ PLANNING FOR SCHOOLS EMERGENCIES SUMMARY As events of the past few years have shown, providing emergency preparedness for Marin County public schools has proven to be a task that grows substantially. Each year, the national news reveals new risks. Administrators and teachers must be alert and prepared to take actions that protect our children. The Grand Jury decided to measure the extent of readiness of our schools to respond to a variety of emergencies. We wanted to see whether the districts and schools have put into place the necessary preparations for ensuring safe and secure campuses. Schools Are Safe Places for Our Children In January 2013, the Grand Jury administered two separate surveys, one for school district superintendents and the other for school administrators, usually principals. The responses to the surveys, along with follow-up interviews with superintendents and school administrators, showed that most schools are committed to the goal of emergency preparedness. Generally, Marin public schools are prepared for a wide variety of potential dangers and have solid plans to implement quick and reasoned responses. Most have built safety communities with first responders and other local resources, and have involved parents in their plans. School Site Emergency Plans For public schools in Marin County, the School Site Emergency Plan is the basic preparedness reference for administration, staff and teachers. It describes, documents, and provides guidance on recommended responses to a wide variety of potential dangers.
