NHSDANATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY for DANCE ARTSThe National Honor Society for Dance Arts (NHSDA) recognizes the achievement and commitment of students in dance. The Winter Springs chapter is sponsored by the Florida Dance Education Organization in cooperation with the National Dance Education Organization. Ms. Rebekah Krausman and the Hunnybears worked diligently to start a chapter at Winter Springs High School beginning in the 2008-2009 school year. We are honored to be the first established chapter in Seminole County. Prior to applying for membership, each dancer had to accumulate and document their dance experience both in the classroom and in the community. To obtain sufficient dance points, typically a high school dancer must perform on a dance team and in the community for two to three years. Mission StatementThe primary mission of the National Honor Society for Dance Arts (NHSDA) is to promote and honor outstanding dance achievement in middle and high school level students (11-18 years of age). Further, NHSDA hopes to encourage well-rounded dance artists to become leaders in their communities after high school graduation.Student membership in the National Honor Society of Dance Arts is awarded based on points earned for meritorious work in dance that meet the honor society’s general guidelines and, when appropriate, based on dance class grade point average. In addition, the prospective member’s dedication to collaborative teamwork, motivation, and participation in the many aspects of dance is a factor in determination of eligibility. Additionally, all junior and senior high school NHSDA members are eligible for nomination to receive the NDEO Artistic Merit, Leadership, and Academic Achievement Award. We are proud to induct our first members into Winter Springs High School’s National Honor Society for Dance Arts for 2008-2009.
