A dance festival is held each year at the Benson Elementary School, P.S.200. The performance is taken place outside of the spacious school yard, with loud music blasting from speakers that are quite large. Parents and neighborhoods gather around the school yard to watch the performances. Residents who live across the street sit outside of their homes and some even bring lawn chairs into the school yard. Each grade level has a different song and dance that they perform to. Grade K comes out first to perform, and then it continues up to grade 5. The students dance to songs like the Electric Slide, Macarana, and much more. They dress colorfully in bright clothes and accessories like bows and ties. The students also create their own instruments from bottles and cardboard tubes from paper towels.
Here is some information about the school.
So the performance is free? Are there any funding that goes towards this festival or does this festival raise any funding used towards the school?
