RHS Dance Classes Seeking Donations

Hello!

The RHS Advanced Dance Classes are hosting the first ever Fall Festival at Rogers High School on Sunday, October 29 from 11:00am - 5:00pm! We are celebrating our Hispanic heritage in Rogers by hosting this event; we will have different Latin dances performed by current and former dancers, food for purchase, and entertainment for children.

As for donations, we are still looking for local businesses to donate any type of food that we can sell. Currently, we have tamales, enchiladas, posole, churros, some desserts (cupcakes, fresas con crema, candy), and aguas de frutas. Additionally, we could use bottled water, canned coke products, gloves for serving food, plates, and silverware. Please see the donation request letters below for more information.

Thank you for your time and support of our program!

Arkansas Dance Programs on the Rise - Antoinette Grajeda

Thank you so much to Antoinette Grajeda, Ozarks at Large, and KUAF for the wonderful story about the growth of dance in Arkansas! We were so honored to be featured!

Elizabeth White leads a group of students in a series of exercises Sept. 26 at Rogers High School.

Thank you RPEF!

Thanks to the Rogers Public Education Foundation and some proceeds from our spring dance recital, Under the Lights, we were able to purchase these mats, blocks and straps so that every dancer can stretch to their individual flexibility level! We are so thankful for all that the RPEF does for our program and for so many others in Rogers. It's a great day to be a Mountie! :)
