Abstract
The purpose of this investigation is to determine to what extent dancing is a part of the curriculum of the public school. The term dance in this study refers to the educational and creative dance—the dance which has for its purpose the development of values in all art, creative ability in realization of ideals and ulitmately(sic) the expression of the soul.
The pendulum in Education has swung to child activity, child initiative and creative self- expression. It is essential that dancing which so adequately fulfills these requirements should find a definite place in the public schools.
