Description

Everyone should feel safe dancing however they want!

Nevaeh is nervous—tomorrow is the first dance-off in Ms. Tharrington’s class. It’s supposed to boost the students’ energy for the rest of the week, but a dance contest isn’t Nevaeh’s idea of a good time. And she’s not alone—Hanh is nervous, too. When the girls tell Ms. Tharrington how they feel, the teacher challenges the class to help everyone feel comfortable.

The students put their heads together and come up with a solution: instead of a dance contest, they’ll have a dance party! No winners, no judgment—just fun.
