On December 4^th, 2013, at 7pm, Panther Creek’s very own dance department performed their annual Fall Dance Concert. Being the first year the Dance I classes were included in the concert, many of them were nervous; however, freshman Cameron Spain explained her thoughts on the concert, saying “It turned out well; we knew the dances and no one messed up badly.”

“There is a lot of preparation that goes into setting it up,” Ms. Hamblen noted. Rehearsal itself started only two days before previous, and to pull off a top-notch concert, many preparations would be needed.

Over 300 people were in attendance, and to make a great concert even better, the money raised from ticket sales would go to fund the school’s art program, in addition to the Laura Rosa Memorial Scholarship, a scholarship available to seniors later in the year.

On November 29^th, Daphne Aguinaldo, a former student and Panther Creek dance team member, fought her last day with cancer. A 2009 graduate, she was known as both a great student and dancer; she was also part of National Honor Society and the varsity cheerleading team. The dance department gave tribute to her honor for the legacy she left behind.
