Music that Describes Anna

She has been instrumental in leading our school on its successful journey and accomplishments. Her passion for the arts includes creating opportunities for the students, as well as teaching ballet and dance. She is demanding, and great work comes from her students.

Anna really made a difference this year in our lives. She went above and beyond to make sure that virtual school worked well for her students. We received treats and postcards, classes were organized and cameras were ON. When class times were too short for a full dance class, she organized "after school" virtual dance almost every day of the week. Performance opportunities were offered again and again! Thank you Ms Dunn!
