Foundation provides $5,000 grant for L.A. High class

The dancers of tomorrow are honing their craft today at Los Angeles High School, which is the beneficiary of a $5,000 grant from the Flourish Foundation for the school’s dance program.
 
Just two days ago Dance Production was interview by BeverlyPress on our success on earning a $5,000 grant for our annual upcoming Spring Show, Shaping Sounds. Feeling proud and honor to be interview by Beverly Press.

“It’s definitely a stepping stone. It helped me academically in school. I graduated with high grades because I did something that I loved,” Lee said.

“During my freshman year, I saw the dance show and I saw people come together as a family, and I wanted to be part of that family,” said junior Karla Escamilla, who has been in the dance program for two years. “My goal is to inspire kids through dance. You dance, and it helps you escape from troubles in life, and have fun.”
Escamilla is the Captain of the dance program with senior Perla Jolon, who said she hopes to become a dance instructor after high school so she can inspire others.
