if you want to emphasis not only "sing" but also "dance", which one is the correct sentence?

In both sentences, you should take away "the" at the end (so it becomes "in school"). Aside from that, both sentences are grammatically correct (though you made a simple typo on the second one: "sing sand").
The first one probably sounds a little more natural, but it doesn't emphasize dancing as much as it seems you want it to. If you want to drive home the emphasis that she did both things, you could say:
"..., but she *not only* sang, *but also* danced in school."
This is a very common structure: "not only X, but also Y"

@Moppy1 Oh no, there's nothing to apologize for! I shouldn't have even brought it up because I knew you already knew the correct spelling, so it's not like it was teaching you anything new. But I'm glad you got the important stuff 😀
