Dances and Important Stuff

Reminders and Info:

Student Choreographed Dances: 
Must be 1/2 done on Thursday November 3rd 
In class showings and peer critiques on choreography.

If dances not completed by set time-frame, or cleaned by set date, dances can and will get cut from the concert.  Same with dancers, if dancers do not show up, they may be pulled from a section of the dance, or the whole dance all together, as per PDC contract.

PDC Daily Homework:  dancers must learn, review, and perfect material learned the previous day in class from his/her choreographer.  You have homework in every class, and this class is not different.  The choreographer does not have time to continually re-teach material, it is the dancers responsibility to have it down so the choreographer can move on with material.

FRI NOV. 4th:  Football Half-Time @ Lp
School wants us to do the big homecoming mash-up routine with everyone this Friday.  We must have 100% participation (if you can't do it, we have some dancers that didn't do it that would be willing to learn your part).  This is great exposure for us and to show we are willing to support our school.   You should remember the routine, it is just formations we may need to review/work on.

PDC BUDDIES:
Don't forget your buddy's birthday or half birthday!
Please remind and help your buddy out with remembering practices, assignments, etc.

Dancer Spotlights:
Officers:  Don't forget to do, present, and turn in your Dancer Spotlight so we can highlight one dancer on our bulletin per week!  This "should" be done on the Monday you teach technique.
 
Vampire Dance:  We will have practice EVERY Friday Morning at 6:15 AM!
