Through both curricular and extra-curricular programs, students in the Ossining schools explore various aspects of participation in theater and drama. Through the study of theater, students engage in acting, directing, improvisation, and performance. Students build skills in presenting to an audience, and important analysis skills. Students utilize assessment and reflection on their own performance as well as that of their peers to improve performance and understand how to engage their audience. 

Each year Ossining High School mounts two large scale productions - a play in the fall, and a musical in the spring. The Anne M. Dorner Middle School presents a musical performance each winter. Additionally, our elementary schools often offer theater arts and drama related after-school programs.
