ABOUT  Mrs. Elrod

CONTACT: kelrod@wcpss.net

I have been teaching in the North Carolina Public High School System since 2014, while also managing my theatrical professional career throughout the Triangle and Triad area. I have professional experience working in front of the camera, behind the camera, on stage, back stage, and in the production scene shop as a carpenter, technician, and technical director with various productions, including opera, musicals, plays, commercials, and concerts in Texas, venues in Austria, Spain, France, and Italy, and right here in North Carolina. I thoroughly enjoy teaching students about the art form that is, sincerely, my passion. 

My classroom is not the traditional classroom. I teach students about the intense production demands through project planning, observation, practiced application, and productive reflection to guide future endeavours. 

In my class, we are learning about Design and Technology, Performance Preparation, Directing and Management, and Critical Script writing and Analysis.
