High School Dance - Harvest Hoedown (9th Graders)
Valor Leander will have its first-ever high school dance in partnership with Valor North Austin. With a "Harvest Hoedown" theme, the dance will feature live music, two-stepping, and line dancing — with students donning Western apparel for the occasion. Every student who attends receives a dance card, which provides an intentional and joyful evening dancing with many partners.
Over the next couple of weeks, we'll teach students how to two-step and line dance during P.E. and Pelion, so all students will be well-prepared for this spirited event.
Students who would like to attend will register on Arbiter, paying for a ticket to help cover the cost of the live band and food for the evening. (Please reach out with any financial concerns — we want all students to attend our dances regardless of finances.)

Deadline: Students must be registered by Friday, October 25th.
