The World is a Stage
Funded Dec 19, 2006I'm delighted that you've chosen to fund my proposal to bring Jordana Oberman, a teaching artist, into my classroom to work with my students. She worked with my class last year and as a result got many students interested in theater. I know this year's class of mine will benefit from the same experience of having Jordi work with them.
Thank you again for your generosity. I look forward to telling you all about the theater experience later in the semester.
My best,
