Pioneerette alums take their dance skills to the next level

Susan Grandey, director of the Warren County High School Pioneerette dance team, is pleased to announce that four of the team’s 2004 graduates will be dancing for collegiate dance teams this fall.

Alyssa Wright will be dancing for the Golden Girls of Tennessee Tech University, while Ericka Porter and Lakelyn Foutch will be members of the University of Memphis dance teams and Aimee Hillis will be a member of MTSU’s Lightning dance team.

“It is very exciting to see our high school graduates go on and dance on the college level, where scholarships are available to them,” Grandey said. “Some decided to pursue dance in a professional way, as well. We have had former Pioneerettes dance for the L.A. Lakers, Memphis Grizzlies, and now the Tennessee Titans.

“We are very proud of our dance program at Warren County High School, and the recognition the team brings to McMinnville and Warren County nationwide.”
