A Nassau BOCES school in Syosset is hosting a troupe of Chinese folk dancers. The group, consisting of 22 students from Beijing and their chaperones, is visiting the Long Island High School for the Arts in Syosset. It is their final stop on a two-week tour. James Hsu, President of the Heritage East Corporation, says dancing will help bring the students together despite the language barrier. According to the trip's organizer, a student exchange program between the two nations may soon be in the works. To watch more footage from the school, click on News 12 Extra on Optimum TV channel 612.
