Welcome
Good evening, and welcome to the Ayala High School Spring Dance Concert, Lights. Camera. Action!.
Tonight's performance is a celebration of dedication, creativity, and growth. Since the very beginning of the school year, our students have poured their time, energy, and passion into the pieces you will see on stage. What makes this concert especially meaningful is that much of the choreography has been created by the dancers themselves, showcasing not only their talent but their artistic voices.
This evening represents many milestones. For some students, it is their very first time performing on stage; for others, it is their final dance concert as part of this program. Each dancer's journey is unique, but together they reflect the strength and spirit of our dance community.
The Ayala Dance Program has grown tremendously over the years, now serving more than 250 students. This growth is a direct reflection of the support we receive from our families, staff, and the Chino Hills community. Your encouragement and belief in the arts make it possible for our students to thrive in a space where they feel inspired to learn, take risks, and express themselves.
We are proud to be part of a school and community that values arts education and recognizes its lasting impact. The experiences these students gain in dance extend far beyond the stage—they build confidence, discipline, collaboration, and a lifelong appreciation for the arts.
We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Mrs. Sue DeVillez, Divine Milam, Mr. Davis, Mrs. Bearden,Mrs. Ojinaga, Mrs. Dahl, Mrs. Sherratt, Ms. Yeh, Ayala Key Club, Grace Songco, Roselle Martinez, Andrea Moran, Jeff and Teresa Stevens, Ranee Jimenez, Lisa Darwin, Krista Ward,Claudia Gomez, Kat Castaneda, Kim Brady, our Ayala High School administration and staff. Your continued support plays an essential role in the success of our program and the experiences of our students.
Thank you for being here tonight and for supporting the Ayala Dance Program. We hope you enjoy the show!
