I used to have the same problem when I was in school. I really liked this girl and would walk her to class and chat with her in the halls, but I never took that step. I found out a few years later that had I asked her out we would have dated because I was her high school crush.
Chances are, the girl that you like has the same feeling. Being rejected can cause a lot of embarrassment, but what hurts more is never saying anything and eventually her moving on and finding someone else to spend time with. I would say you already have the foundation built, talk to her about the dance and if she is as excited about it as you seem to be, ask her if she would like to be your date. Make sure you say date though that way you can get all of the emotions out on the table and not wonder if you are going as friends.
Good luck and remember, if she says no, what will harm the relationship is how you react to that. Sometimes people have a desire to just be friends with people, but chances are she has the same feeling for you.
