Kennedy Morgan
Kennedy did not always want to be a dancer. She basically tried every sport and hobby first. But when she did karate she pointed her toes. When she played basketball she ran on her toes and dribbled to the beat. When she sang she did it with a dancie flair. It was her grandma Abby who finally convinced her at the age of 10 that dancing was her destiny. Tracy's dance academy took Kenn under their wing and caught her up. She was in their competitive group for years till they closed their doors. Kennedy is graceful yet a goofy gal! She lives life as if every day is the last party she will be attending. She sings in the shower, sits on the roof and eats chocolate frosting from the can and can fall asleep anywhere. Being a member of the Las Scelles as a sophomore was "Da Bomb." Two more years of "Bliss" to go baby!!!!!!!!!
