National League of Junior Cotillions
Lake Lanier Chapter
About
National League of Junior Cotillions is a curriculum designed to give young people instruction and practice in the courtesies that make life more pleasant for them and those around them; to give them thorough training in standard ballroom dance; and to provide opportunities to practice and enjoy these skills at memorable parties, balls, dinners, and events, complete with decorations, refreshments, favors and prizes.
Junior Cotillion emphasizes etiquette, manners, and character education as well as dancing. The social and character education components of the program include rules of polite conversation, introductions, proper telephone courtesy, table manners, acknowledgments of gifts, receiving lines, participating in group settings, paying, and receiving compliments, sports etiquette, first impressions, dress code for all occasions, and manners in the home and public places. Other topics covered are the ethics involved in the areas of having honor, dignity, respect, honesty, fairness, a caring attitude, accountability, and citizenship.
