We emphasize learning traditional & modern social etiquette and dance that builds self-confidence in future social situations. Social is a memory you are creating for your student.
Please note: there are no classes leading up to the dance; this is a one night special event. Tickets are sold individually to adhere to our no dates policy.
Students who took our 7th grade Social Cotillion Program automatically recieve an invitation to The Figgy Ball. If your student did not attend 7th grade Social Cotillion, you may request an invitation.
Figgy’s Story
A little Shih Tzu rescue, Figgy was thrown off of the I-75 overpass into the Chattahoochee where she swam to a little island. She was on the island for more than 2 weeks. A TDNR friend was kayaking on the Chattahoochee and spotted Figgy on the island. She put little Figgy, who weighed only 2 lbs with a broken front leg, into her kayak, and took her to the vet through TDNR. A few days later Figgy came to stay with us as a foster. We adopted Figgy in March 2024 and she is now a healthy, well-adjusted little dog. This added element will serve as a wonderful way for the students to learn the importance of social philanthropy – a portion of proceeds from your students ticket will go towards helping other dogs like Figgy!
We want to add meaning to the 8th Grade Social Dance: The Figgy Ball with an introduction to philanthropy! A portion of each ticket goes to support a local dog rescue, Three Dog Night Rescue (TDNR), a licensed registered 501c3 nonprofit organization founded by Westminster alumna Louise Hatcher. You can explore more about TDNR on their website or instagram @tdn_rescue.
Please note: any additional donation to TDNR is optional; tickets/registration to the 8th Grade Social Dance: The Figgy Ball are purchased separately here.
