Jordyn has loved the opportunity to dance for all these years at CSD. She has been very dedicated juggling dance volleyball and softball, many times coming to dance straight from a game in her softball uniform. She and Meredith Belcher attended dance conventions in Portsmouth for a few years and were even able to compete with a Tap Dance. Jordyn has formed so many lifelong bonds through dance. Not just with her friends, but with her teachers as well. Jordyn is sweet, kind and has a heart of gold and is a friend to everyone she meets. Jordyn will miss everyone dearly but looks forward to returning to watch future recitals. She would like to thank all the teachers who molded her into the dancer that she has become starting with the dearly departed Mrs. Donna, may she RIP, Mrs. Carol, Mrs. Elaine, Ms. Morgan, and Ms. Caitlin.  Thank you all for all that you have done. It has meant so much.
