Valentine Day Dance

Students were swinging at the Valentine's Day Ball at J.C. Thomas Middle School. "It was a great time," PE instructor Mary Moonen said. "We learned the line dance 'Cupid Shuffle' and all the teachers even got out there and danced. The kids like the swing the best, but a lot danced to the cha cha as well. I feel they enjoy the Valentine's Day Ball because we practice the different dances all week, so it builds their confidence to dance freely with others, and that is what social dance is all about."
