HSD Videoconferencing

On Thursday November 20 three Hempfield High School students participated in a MAGPI sponsored event that explored dance styles with the 2007 Pew Fellows in Choreography. The format of the event was a showcase documentary of each choreographer’s work, Charles O. Anderson, Dorothy Gordon Wilkie and Kate Watson-Wallace, followed by a panel discussion. Our students appreciated the opportunity to interact with these artists and look forward to more videoconferencing events that focus on dance and choreography.
