Hey Y'all, My name is Journey Harris! I am from Cleburne Texas, but this fall I will be attending school at Tarleton! Here, I will begin my journey to becoming a high school dance coach as I major in secondary education. During high school I was highly involved in the teaching classes which allowed me to gain experience working with students in general education aswell as special education. I was also an active member of my school's drill team, The Cleburne Showstoppers, for the entirety of my high school career and had the privilege of serving in an officer position my senior year. In my time on the Showstoppers Dance Team I truly found a love and passion for dance and decided that I wanted to share that love with young girls as my career! I can not wait to work with your dancers this fall!
