The Nantucket Community School has again partnered with Language Connections to bring you another interpreting program: Medical Interpreter Training!
This 60-hour, seven-week VIRTUAL course will qualify participants to become certified medical interpreters. Lectures are conducted by qualified specialists in their respective fields. Anatomy and physiology are taught by an experienced clinician, while language coaching and role-play are led by expert medical interpreters who are native speakers of the target language. This course is for students who are fluent in English and Spanish or Portuguese.
The program kicks off on Friday, February 4 and will be held on Fridays and Saturdays through March 26. Space is limited, so register early! To sign up, visit our website and click on the "All Classes" tab.

This fall, our DanceWorks program expanded to include a piloted class called "Exploring Choreography". This student-led class was aimed at gaining valuable experience in composing dances in both solo and group forms with mentorship support.
Students studied the art and craft of choreography through theory and practice, employing various methodologies, techniques, sources, styles and points of view.
Last month, the students presented their pieces that they put together themselves.
Ella Hofford, Fiona Keltz, Claire Levesque and Lily Remick collaborated to choreograph a piece performed to Jasmine Thompson's "Do You Want to Build A Snowman?". The contemporary dance piece focused on the storyteller's emotions. They explored how to take literal gestures into more abstract movement, playing with the concepts of time, stillness and contact work.
"Carol of the Bells" by Shaky Graves was a dark presentation of the traditional holiday song. Tatum Corbett, Olivia Fee, Stella Glowacki and Maggie O'Keefe loosely drew inspiration from the movie "A Christmas Carol". Representing the past, present and future they explored what is similar, different and alike with their movement and how it can be brought together in a collaborative piece.
Congratulations to these dancers for their accomplishments!
