and Goals:

Rationale for
Changes or
Exceptions:

TAP CLASSES ARE FILLED TO CAPACITY WHEN THEY ARE OFFERED. CURRENTLY STUDENTS ARE NOT ABLE TO CONTINUE WITH TAP DANCE INSTRUCTION PAST THE INTRODUCTORY LEVEL. THERE IS NO COURSE FOR STUDENTS WHO ALREADY KNOW THE BASICS IN TAP DANCE. THIS COURSE ADDRESSES THESE PROBLEMS.
