One continuous 5 minute take! As many times as I watch this, I'm still amazed at his stamina. And props to the cameraman, who had to go up and down stairs backwards.
First off Scot Pankey You are an incredible dancer. Super hot awesome! Second you have mad teaching skills. What you clearly do for those kids... You have effectively and positively influenced them for the rest of their lives. You made the world a better place hundreds of times over. So Good on you man!! Much love!
I love everyone in this video, but I have to say, as a dancer, I am truly impressed with the space you travel to get to the different groups. Mad props, Mr. Pankey.
I LOVE THIS VIDEO I LOVE HOW EVERYONE REGARDLESS OF THEIR RACE OR GENDER OR THEIR DISABILITY CAN LET GO OF THEIR DIFFERENCES AND DANCE TOGETHER. (i don't care if that just sounded cheesy i'm just speaking from my mind.)
But, the only reason race and gender has to be in every conversation is because the woke fools need everybody to be a victim. There aren’t any victims in this video. I enjoyed it very much.
Congrats to all of you! Mr. Pankey, by creating this video you accomplished the following with students: Planning, Participation, Large Group interaction and , "seeing thing in the mind's eye" before finished product, facing and overcoming a possible fear of dancing or being in a large group activity, using technology, the whole Arts and theatre experience, school spirit, etc... I could go on! The school and students are lucky to have a teacher like you!
I still am so amazed to see a teacher these days that actually does there job right instead of giving packets of work and lecturing gets the kids up and moving and i can tell just from the way everyone is smiling that you are an amazing teacher i hope if i become a teacher one day ill be as good as you.
@@chickkat You're very lucky to have a great teacher. Trust me when I say that a great teacher will stay in your memory forever! Every student has that one special teacher, and he looks like a great one to have!
This was awesome and serious props to all the students who put themselves out there and killed it!! I don't think I could have done that in high school and you all made it look easy and so fun. Also this teacher has some serious moves and stamina. Great great job everyone :)
Lana M in my honest opinion, if we still point out the disabled person we’re not ready. We’re still seeing the difference. It’s when we see not difference in color or whatever. That’s when we’ve evolved
Oh, stop. Just stop. Why wouldn’t everybody at the school be included if they wanted to participate? Don’t believe the crap that is pushed by the Dems and woke fools. This is not the same country it was 60 years ago. It’s the Dems and media who keep pushing fake victim narratives.
Teachers like him are the reason I made it through middle school and high school. He definitely cares about the students and bravo for getting them out of their comfort zones. Theatre/Music/Choir teachers are so under appreciated and they are truly some of the most incredible!
Sara Roberts i don't know any of the students so i know nothing about any of their personal comfort zones - i have no way to know how another person *truly* feels. but i agree, they are all amazing in this video.
Scot Pankey will you marry me??? Oh wait, that won't work, I'm married. But WOW!!! This puts a smile on my face every time I watch it. I LOVE how you interact with the kids and included everyone!
Bravo! It is a great way to keep the children dream all together and bond. It gives them something to look for and talk of while they practice and do this... and later on... it makes them stay in school with positive attitude and something to look for between the classes. Great idea and great job Mr Pankey!
Great teaching, obviously great school staff and admin for supporting this... These students are amazing. They worked hard. Putting a production like this together is quite an accomplishment. There is a reason why so many people love this video - It is truly inspiring! (It's also entertaining!)
Bravo Director/Teacher Scot Pankey at - A. Maceo Smith Tech High School in Dallas, TX. . You deserve a red apple award for successfully achieving student enthusiasm as much school spirit and awareness, directing/teaching 200 hundred high school kids the benefit of learning an important role Arts and Theatre portray, shaping global music and cultures of the future. Oh and this awesome viral video they'll remember for the rest of their celebrity lives!! LOL You Sir, are AWESOME!!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this!!! So creative and entertaining! Yay for all Music/Theater/Dance/Fine Arts Educators!!! Like these students, I was so fortunate to have an team of amazing Fine Arts Educators! Scot Pankey, you are an outstanding teacher!!! These kids are going to remember this for the rest of their lives! You are making a difference in their lives, keep up your stellar work!
So nice to see him interacting with his students in such a manor making school a fun and wholesome environment for them and him getting thru this epidemic and starting the year with a bang good job sir much respect
The teacher & students are AWESOME Dancers !! Who needs to watch Dancing with the Stars, when there is talent like this !! They deserve a Grammy Award !!
I'm still watching this in Nov 2017. Been watching it for the past couple years whenever I need a little smile. This warms my heart that all those students came together like this.
What AMAZES me about this video is that it was all done in only ONE take. All that choreography to remember! If you made any mistakes you covered them very well.
Re-watching this makes me smile yet very sad:( Mr. Pankey, you are an awesome man.... you loved every student at New Tech. Thank you for being amazing and most of all for being a great teacher to my sister Esther and brother Leonel. Graduating from A. Maceo Smith New Tech High school was a dream come true but I wish I could do my high school life all over again.... I'll be up there to see you guys as much as I can
I love this so much!!! I have watched it a few times and smiled through the whole thing every time! What an awesome teacher and group of students. I'm totally impressed.
One continuous 5 minute take! As many times as I watch this, I'm still amazed at his stamina. And props to the cameraman, who had to go up and down stairs backwards.

Music and Dance United We Stand 💯🌟💯🌟💯🌟💯🌟💯🌟
I know right…..How sweet was it everyone was included 😁😁
It brought a smile to my sad face!
Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.
Here's a teacher that knows how to get the students engaged. Bravo!
He probably had nothing to do with getting them involved ha i bet he was just asked to do it ha
Congrats to all of you!

AMEN !!!!!!!
As a teacher, you make me indescribably PROUD! All inclusive and beyond the call of duty!
I still am so amazed to see a teacher these days that actually does there job right instead of giving packets of work and lecturing gets the kids up and moving and i can tell just from the way everyone is smiling that you are an amazing teacher i hope if i become a teacher one day ill be as good as you.
Scott - Thanks for making Oak Cliff & Dallas proud. I appreciated how you included ALL students, and you can really dance! Brilliant!!!
THIS is the teacher I would have had the mad crush on. Bravo.
Jim Fitzpatrick hes... my teacher...

Agreed!!
it is great you included a disabled person and we should all respect each other no matter how we look or our culture
Lana M in my honest opinion, if we still point out the disabled person we’re not ready. We’re still seeing the difference. It’s when we see not difference in color or whatever. That’s when we’ve evolved
@@robm9462 You're absolutely right.

AMAZING!!!!! That is incredible. You are an inspiration to all teachers. Thank you for what you do.
Anytime I'm feeling a little sad, I watch this video, and it makes me feel better.

Bravo! He is obviously a fun and energetic teacher to had danced all around that building. I hope he still has mad respect from his students.
Scot Pankey will you marry me??? Oh wait, that won't work, I'm married. But WOW!!! This puts a smile on my face every time I watch it. I LOVE how you interact with the kids and included everyone!
and he's gay
2020 and just saw this. AMAZING! Great teacher
20 22
I love this so much. So happy that a person with disabilities was included too.
Bravo! It is a great way to keep the children dream all together and bond. It gives them something to look for and talk of while they practice and do this... and later on... it makes them stay in school with positive attitude and something to look for between the classes. Great idea and great job Mr Pankey!
That teacher's got THE FUNK!
Can I just say this is my favorite version ever! Teacher you are awesome to have the guts to do this for your students. You rock. Thank you!
This teacher and all those kids are BOSS! They were all fabulous! I'm impressed!

I just watched this again, and I couldn't help noticing the kid dressed in green with a box on his/her head. Camera shy? Too funny!

Funny. I read on CNN.com that Mr. Pankey said "he agreed to be in the video even though he wasn't a dancer." Sure looks like a dancer to me! Awesome.
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK TEACHER WE NEED MORE TEACHERS LIKE YOU!!!!! TO HAVE PASSION IN THEIR SOUL TO MAKE STUDENT WORK TOGETHER...
Fantastic! So much fun, dedication and teamwork! Bravo to you and all the students.
LOVE THIS. You should moonlight as a Zumba instructor for teens :)
Gosh, how can you NOT notice 'that'. WOW they're great dancers.
