​2017-2018

Montse Guerrero, a professional dancer with the American Repertory Ballet, spoke to the girls about the joy and challenges of a career in the arts.  The participants of Unit III were inspired by her perseverance.  One of her strategies is to look back at each day and find at least one thing that she learned or improved in.  In the breakout session she demonstrated the 5 basic positions of Ballet, and shared how a greater appreciation of the arts can enrich our lives.
