A Message from Dr. Payne:
March is Theatre in Our Schools Month! It is a time when students and teachers can raise awareness through activities celebrating Theatre education. It is with great excitement that I welcome you to our 11th Annual Theatre Festival. The planning team has been tirelessly working to prepare a series of workshops, activities, and performances that allow us to make today a celebration.
Quotes from Theatre Students:
“Theatre teaches us how to connect with each other.”
“Theatre changed the way I look at myself.”
“The best thing about Theatre is that it is not one-sided.”
“The Theatre community is absolutely amazing!”
“We must not fail to create career pathways for students of the arts—career pathways that provide even more reason to stay in school for students confidently moving toward a bright future.” Dr. Kimberly Brown, The Arts and Dropout Prevention: The Power of Art to Engage.
Thank you, parents and teachers, and District leadership for your continued support. Thank you, students, for always putting your best foot forward.
