How can you help with Dance Night 2023? How can you help make Dance Night an amazing show for our dancers and the Canterbury Community?

ONLY 38 DAYS TO OPENING NIGHT?!!

Hi everyone!. Jennie M (class of 2023) and Eugene W (class of 2024) are the Dance Night Parent Co-Chairs. They played instrumental roles in making last year's event a success.

As the school cannot share parent/guardian contact information with other parents, we ask you to "opt in" to communication from the Dance Night committee. This is also how you sign up to volunteer. Please use this link. http://eepurl.com/h4FhJv

** If you opted in last year, you will have to re-register as the list is wiped clean each August **

If you have general questions about volunteering or the role parents can play, please email canterburydanceparents @ gmail.com

We are looking for a Volunteer Coordinator to work with our team - if you are interested, please email our Gmaili address.

We're starting to get ready for the most crazy, wonderful time of the year!! Keep your eyes posted for more information as our community of dance parents prepare for Dance Night 2023!! Share our page with other CHS Dance parents.

Welcome back returning Dance families!! And a big welcome to our new Dance families!

While we wait for the school year to really get started and Dance Parents' Council gets up & running for this school year, we wanted to share the reminder that all dance students are asked to pay the Voluntary fee for Dance.

This is paid through School Cash Online (www.schoolcashonline.com) . In the past, the payment was required to be made in full in one payment. GREAT NEWS!! The system is now able to do monthly paments!

When you login to School Cash Online, select your Dance student and you will see the regular student fees for all CHS students (again, voluntary....) that includes the option for a Year Book, etc. And you will also see the student fees for Dance.

This is a $250 fee for each year your student dances at Canterbury. What does this cover?

As a member of the Canterbury Arts Program, you are asked to pay your yearly fee of $250 for curriculum enhancements that are above and beyond what students in regular programs receive. This includes supplies, guest speakers, specialized equipment, and learning opportunities that are unique to Arts Canterbury. We rely on these fees as the primary source of support for this special program.

If you have any concerns or questions, please contact Liz Hanson, Arts Coordinator, as subsidy and financial assistance are available.

This fee, plus the funds raised during our annual Dance Night (held in spring each year) fund the dance program above & beyond the regular dollars per student that the school receives for each student (the same amount as if your child attended their local high school).

Please invite any other Dance Families that you may know to follow this page. We will share any fundraising initiatives, events and more that we are aware of / or plan.
