The Stars are Born
For those of you who do not know, in January of 2017, Wimberley Dance Elite approached WISD and Wimberley High School about collaborating to start a dance team. Both Mr. York and Mr. Valentine were hopeful and appreciative, but also hesitant. The last attempt at a dance team was, in the words of the kids, an "epic fail" for everyone involved. But love won again. The district's love for its students and desire to provide opportunities and our love for dance and desire to bring it to our community is beautifully real. The 2017-2018 Texan Stars led by WDE's Victoria Wilson established the team as a permanent and growing organization for the students of WHS and the town of Wimberley. The 2018-2019 Texan Stars are thirteen amazing young women, supported by thirteen amazing families,
