MyArlingtonTV is traveling across The American Dream City to showcase kids in Arlington who are working to achieve their dreams.

"Dream Builders"will highlight the ways our community is helping kids dream big, nurture their creativity, polish their skills and develop the tools they need to achieve their American Dream as young adults.

The first episode features American Classical Ballet Academy in Arlington, which provides gifted ballet dancers 3rd through 12th grade, the necessary training to become the next generation of classical dancers. The academic faculty also shares in the artistic mission of the school, integrating artistic, cultural, and social elements in each course of study.

A group of students from the American Classical Ballet Academy will have the chance to make their dreams come true after being invited to participate in the Youth American Grand Prix International Finals. Approximately 15,000 students compete around the world, but only around 200 are selected. The competition will be held in New York City from April 22-29, 2016.

All episodes are also available on the City's YouTube channel.
