Students will also learn pageantry, including the following:
- processionals
- flags
- glory hoops

The
school calendar is synchronized with the school year to
facilitate a stress-free family schedule. Fall semester is September
to December; spring semester January to June; and summer semester
June to August. Students will be notified ahead of time of any calendar
changes.
In worship dance, modesty is a must because you are a priest representing a holy God. Each student is responsible for providing preparation and ministry garments. Foundational garments can be locally purchased from Alaska Dancer Emporium. Overlays and ephods can be purchased from http://www.myspace.com/wavesofgloryflags or www.ladiedicsw.org. Please tell them I referred you.
