Dance and Performing Arts Club

Building confidence, social skills, and a love of learning that lasts

Dillard and North Fork understand the importance of teaching a STEM-based education (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math), but are now calling it “STEAM”. The A is for Art!

Our Track Record

Since 2013, Ranger Good Works has been committed to expanding performing arts opportunities at Dillard Elementary School, helping students develop confidence, creativity, discipline, and cultural awareness through dance. Our support began with the school’s existing Step Team, which engaged more than 40 girls in activities that promoted teamwork, self-expression, and leadership.

Building on this foundation, Ranger Good Works introduced an African Dance component, celebrating cultural heritage while providing students with opportunities to explore traditional dance and artistic expression. To strengthen the program, we sponsored a dance instructor from Dillard High School and partnered with the Broward Center for the Performing Arts, connecting students with professional instruction and enriching cultural experiences.

In 2014, Ranger Good Works partnered with Neiman Marcus for its “Love to Give” fundraising event, where the Dillard Elementary Dance Club delivered a special performance showcasing students’ talent, creativity, and school pride. Proceeds from the event supported arts programming at the school.

Over the years, these initiatives have helped create meaningful opportunities for students to develop their talents, experience diverse cultural traditions, and build confidence through the performing arts.

Beginning July 2026, Ranger Good Works expanded its outreach to five Broward County Public Schools: Dillard Elementary, Oriole Elementary, Rock Island Elementary, West Hollywood Elementary, and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Elementary. This expansion creates new opportunities to support existing dance and performing arts programs across our partner schools.

Current Programs

Dance and Performing Arts Enrichment

Through our After-School Clubs and Programs Pillar, Ranger Good Works continues to support performing arts opportunities that encourage creativity, cultural appreciation, teamwork, and personal development.

Our initiatives emphasize various forms of dance, including stepping, African dance, and creative movement, providing students with opportunities to develop rhythm, coordination, discipline, and confidence.

Supporting Existing School Dance Programs

As Ranger Good Works expands its partnerships, we are committed to strengthening existing dance and performing arts programs at our five partner schools. By collaborating with school leadership, instructors, and community organizations, we aim to provide additional resources, qualified instruction, and meaningful enrichment experiences that complement each school’s established programs.

Cultural Exposure and Performance Opportunities

Through our Community Exposure Programs Pillar, Ranger Good Works seeks to connect students with professional dancers, cultural organizations, and performing arts institutions, including opportunities to experience live performances and participate in educational workshops.

These experiences introduce students to diverse artistic traditions, encourage self-expression, and broaden their understanding of the performing arts.

What’s Next:

Ranger Good Works looks forward to expanding access to dance and performing arts enrichment across our five partner schools as funding and community partnerships grow. Our priorities include supporting qualified dance instructors, providing performance uniforms and supplies, and sponsoring transportation to cultural events, workshops, and professional performing arts venues.

By strengthening existing programs and introducing new opportunities where needed, we aim to ensure that more students can discover their talents, celebrate their cultural heritage, and experience the transformative power of dance.
