A note from our committee head... The Texas Dance Educators’ Association (TDEA) has been in existence since 1978. It hosts a dance team convention each year at the Houston Marriot Hotel at Westchase, formally known at the Adam’s Mark Hotel. This year the convention will be on January 6-9, 2010. In 2003, TDEA expanded its membership to include administration. One day of the convention, Friday, January 8, 2010, is designed for Administration and Fine Arts Directors at the Jr. High and High School level. It, not only gives administrators the opportunity to see the new innovative methods in teaching TEKS in Fine Arts Dance, the venue provides workshops to brainstorm with others. Many experts working within the Dance field at both the secondary level and college provide information in dance supervision and guidance of Dance Education according to TEA guidelines. The Convention also gives administrators an opportunity to meet prospective dance educators and tour an exhibit hall of vendors. We are hoping you will be able to join us. Please go to www.tdea.org if you are interested in registering for the convention. Registration began on September 1, 2009. You will need to log on as a new user and then you will be able to register under convention registration.

"I've been attending the TDEA Conference yearly. I've benefitted greatly from learning about the issues and sharing best practices that are specific to our dance programs. This strand has been working diligently toward advancing program standards, curriculum and advocacy for dance education in our schools."
