Panorama High School had good representation for the 2026 All-Iowa Dance Team, taking the most girls in program history.

Panthers Head Dance Coach Kristi Vance shares that 10 girls were selected to be on the All-Iowa Team, including senior Lexi Wasson, juniors Maci Bauer, Hadley Fitch, and Jessica Randol, followed by sophomores Nella Rivas, Cali Knudsen, Berkeley Schwartz, Ava Thorn, and Miyah Small, then rounded out with freshman Addison Wagner. Vance details that eight dancers are eligible to audition, plus two alternates. She says the Panthers’ Dancers never cease to amaze.

“It’s just moments like that that never get old. I’ve been doing this for 24 years, and having something special like that is just a reminder of the success of our program, and the strengths of our athletes, and I’m just so very proud of them.”

Panorama performed two routines of Jazz and The Mix during the Iowa Girls High School Athletic Union State Basketball Tournament at the Casey’s Center in Des Moines on March 4th.
