milken community high school

Jews can dance a mean hora, but when it comes to hip-hop, they aren\’t known to hold their own — until now. The Milken Community High School Dance Team swept the open regional Dance Team Competition in Las Vegas and earned a bid to the 2004 National Dance Team Competition of the High School.

When the Milken team qualified to compete in just one category at last year\’s nationals, they were the first private Jewish school to earn such an honor. By sweeping last month\’s regionals in the hip-hop, lyrical, medium dance, jazz and officers categories, Milken enters this year\’s nationals as one of the teams to beat.
