Since 1938, fifth and sixth graders from the Greater Rochester community have expanded their view of the world and gained foundational skills in table etiquette and cultural awareness, while creating new friendships through swing, ballroom, and popular dance lessons at the Allendale Columbia School Formal Dance Instruction and Etiquette Class. During the classes, students gain the skills to feel more poised and comfortable in social situations, providing invaluable preparation as they progress through school and into the business world. Classes stress respect for others and include a global twist, as dancing, introductions, and table etiquette from other countries are incorporated to prepare students to succeed in a global community. All classes are taught by Mr. David Interlicchia, a professional dancer and certified dance instructor.
