SPECIAL EDUCATION RESIDENCIES in greenville county high schools

Carolina Dance Collaborative receives annual funding from the Barbara Stone Foundation to work alongside special education high schoolers in the Greenville County Public Schools. Four schools are chosen to participate in five weeks of lessons each Fall and Spring semesters, culminating with a joint performance of all participants. Peer tutors and teachers play a significant role in this project, so they join onstage to assist our SpEd performers. This large performance is an exciting and special experience for everyone involved!
