What is Thespians?
Thespian Society aims to promote collaboration, creativity, and philanthropy within Sierra Middle School. Students will meet monthly to plan events surrounding theatre, including community outreach events, spirit days, fundraisers, and student events (beginning and end of year picnics). Students will be led by a Drama Council, chosen by Ms. Sweeney through an interview process.
The International Thespian Society (ITS) is the student honorary division of Educational Theatre Association (EdTA) recognizing excellence in middle and high school theatre. Membership into ITS is earned by participating in theatrical productions and activities and accumulating points towards membership. This organization has been honoring excellence in the work of theatre students since 1929. Students active in Thespian Troupe will have the ability to be apart of Drama Council Leadership.
