ATC Dances
ATC is a dance hosted by St. Pius students from grades 9 to 12. Four times a year Mr. Boucher invites special needs people from community groups around the city to come to St. Pius for a free dance. The purpose to welcome these people and show them a good time at our school. At the dance, your job is to dance with them, talk to them and interact with them like you would with any of the Pius students. You can approach teachers with questions or concerns you might have. Remember, the dance is for them, not us, and has been going on for over 40 years. Let's help it to continue for another 40!
