Program Concept

. .
The APAC dance class is a pre-professional program based on a rigorous written, sequential curriculum. The objective is to prepare students for the next level in dance whether university, apprenticeship, or professional experience. Supported on the foundation of the National Standards for the Arts and the Mississippi Visual and Performing Arts Framework, our intent is to develop artistic talent over the course of several courses so that 12th-grade students are prepared to audition successfully at the collegiate level in the area of their chosen arts discipline. The dance program offers comprehensive classes that include the performance and academic elements of dance (ballet, modern, jazz and hip hop).
