Look at our March Children’s Open Mic photos:

6 year old Aubrey is practicing the song, Lean On Me with 9-year-old Kartier’s help. Mr. Nick’s teachings in music classes have a great effect not only musically, but in creating community fellowship amongst our children.

Our Parental Liaison, Maria Martinez, is conducting a special decoration class with our students, as we get ready for St. Valentine’s Day!”

 

Our annual Kwanzaa performance at the Sister To Sister International’s Kwanzaa Celebration. Our students shared the stage with their instructors and presented a beautiful piece using movement and song!

During the Winter Holiday Recess, we held a camp. Ms. Camilla, our Latin Dance Instructor, is also a great storyteller. Also, Luna, our older student and 1st CIT (Counselor In Training) also stepped up and worked with our littles with their starting positions with dance. Versatility and sharing are always welcomed with the YTI family!

 

Look at our students creating ornaments with Parent Liaison, Ms. Maria, to hang on our Christmas Tree!
