azdeo President-elect

Tracey Holberg is in her 12th year of teaching overall and just finished up her 4th year teaching dance at Washington High School. Prior to teaching dance, Tracey was a math teacher until the dance teacher position opened up. As for dance training, Tracey has been dancing since she was 12, starting with Leap of Faith (now Creative Edge) Dance, and then continuing to dance in high school under Kelli Abramovich. She is the dance captain of Wight Noise Dance Company and has been with the company for 12 years. In terms of her experience with AzDEO, she has been a member for seven years total- three years when she taught a section of dance alongside her math classes and then these past four years as well. As a member, Tracey inducts students every year into NHSDA and has attended several NDEO conferences and AzDEO events. Now that she is comfortable in her role as dance teacher, she feels ready to take on more leadership. She feels dance teachers are missing out by not participating in the AzDEO professional development and networking opportunities and hopes to help spread awareness in a leadership role in the organization.
