What Do Students Want Out of Credo Dances?

While dances like homecoming, winter formal and spring fling are great for school morale, it’s no secret that the last couple of dances haven’t been satisfactory to the student body musically. I surveyed the school and at first divided the requests and input by grade but instead came up with the following categories ; 1- Hype / Get it DOWN, 2-Make the Alt Kids Happy, 3- Justice for the Lesbians, 4- SLOW SONGS WE NEED, 5- Throwback ! 

To dance and events, as well as admin, please know that I put in the effort to check that each of these songs have a clean version and I personally listened to each of them to consider whether the crowd would join the floor. (While simultaneously not limiting the list to my own tastes.) Please keep in mind that I am not in any way assuming anyone’s identities because there are no names tied to the songs and I have the memory of a goldfish about names and faces.
