Dance dreams

By Dani Prevette Messamore

It was report day in Mrs. Johnson's fifth-grade class.  Topic: "Your career." Each student would speak for a few minutes on what he or she wanted to do as an adult, and why.

Kasey was excited. When her turn came, it was all she could do not to take a few flying leaps up to the front of the room. But she didn't. Instead, Kasey faced the class and began explaining why she wanted to become a dance teacher.
