• Welcome to the Tartan Dance Team!


     Tartan Dance Team Goal:

    The Tartan Dance Team is a cooperative group of dancers/athletes whose purpose and mission strive to promote the vision of THS athletics. Our goal is to promote involvement, teamwork, dedication, work ethic, respect and positivity to produce strong middle and high school dancers. 

    Mission Statement: 

    TDT's mission is to provide dancers with an educational, meaningful and fun experience.  Academic achievement, respect, dance ability, friendships and resilience are amongst our top ranked priorities on this team. Successful dancers will leave our program feeling accomplished, ready for life outside of high school and part of the TDT family.  

    The Tartan Dance Team is comprised of two different teams that work together to achieve the goals and mission of the program and school. B Squad is designed to provide dancers with exposure and experience to Dance Team. Here is where they will learn skills, technique, traditions and the values of our program. Varsity represents dancers who have established skills and dedication to our team. Both teams work closely together to achieve the goals and establish the foundation for future dancers in our program.
