She has been teaching dance full-time since 2005 but at her current school since Fall 2014. In 2016, she chartered her school’s National Honor Society for Dance Arts (NHSDA) chapter, enabling high school seniors to graduate with Honors recognition.

A few of her accolades include Teacher of the Year (2009-2010), SC Dance Association Educator of the Year (2012), Region 11 Magnet School of America Teacher of the Year (2013), SC Dance Association Arts Advocacy Award (2016), and District Lead Dance Educator (2018- present). Ms. Stribling’s intention as a dance educator is to mold her students into passionate arts advocates.
