The junior program exposes students to the foundations of drama. In grade nine, students explore a variety of topics such as the history of musical theatre and the practice of improvisation and mime techniques. Students learn a little bit about all aspects of theatre, such as acting, directing as well as set and costume design and writing for performance. In grade ten students continue to build on the skills they learned in grade nine, and they also explore self-expression through monologues, spoken word and movement. Selected grade ten students participate in an end-of-year boardwide showcase of art called TDSB Creates. 

In senior drama classes students use the elements of drama to examine situations and issues that are relevant to their lives. Senior students spend time refining acting and design skills. By producing dramatic works, senior students have the opportunity to put executive skills to use in a practical way. They use their leadership skills to direct, their management skills to stage-manage, their communication and concentration skills to perform, their creative thinking skills to design sound, lights, costumes and sets.  Our seniors work together to produce short pieces for assemblies and a student written play for the National Theatre School Drama Festival. Our original plays and drama students have won numerous awards at the NTS Drama Festival.
