“Money raised from Dancing For Our Stars is used to support students and faculty on the Corsicana Campus. Last year the Foundation awarded $475,396 in scholarships across the District. In addition, a portion of the money raised will fund Teaching Innovation Award grants for Faculty to encourage adoption of new teaching pedagogies, innovative methods of delivery that promote active learning, course redesign, and classroom technology improvements. In 2019 the Foundation Board of Directors awarded over $30,000 for Corsicana Faculty. Funds are also used to support the development of new programs and expansion of existing programs. The Foundation is extremely appreciative of the support the community has given this fundraising event,” said Dr. Housley.
The couples are receiving dance lessons at Corsicana’s “Shall We Dance” studio, with instruction from Diana Castillo and Adelaide Castillo. We thank the dancers and instructors for their commitment to this event.
