Core Values
Core Values
We are a place where every student can explore the art of dance and performing arts. Through celebrated performance opportunities, we provide a strong foundation in several genres of dance with the ability to move beyond a recreational and celebratory space into a pre-professional realm for those students who seek it. Our community vision is to grow as people and performers.
PolyKnack Studios Performing Arts Academy has 3 Core Values:
1. Every kid deserves a champion.
2. Every kid has talents and gifts.
3. Progress over perfection.
Every kid deserves a champion. Every child should have a dedicated adult who believes in them, supports their growth, and advocates for their needs. This champion provides encouragement, guidance, and unwavering support, helping the child navigate challenges and reach their full potential. Champions work to ensure that children have access to opportunities and resources that can help them grow.
Every kid has talents and gifts. All children possess unique abilities and qualities that make them special and capable in their own ways. It's important to recognize and celebrate a wide range of abilities, not just those that are easily quantifiable or widely recognized. This includes acknowledging and valuing the unique contributions each child makes.
Progress over perfection. Prioritizing progress means celebrating incremental improvements and learning from each step along the way. It’s about acknowledging that growth is a journey, and each small achievement is a significant part of that process. Embracing progress over perfection helps build resilience by focusing on perseverance and adaptability.
