My Students

Our amazing 4th Graders were given an awesome opportunity to participate in the Disney Musicals in Schools program this year! They are SO excited to go through the whole process of putting on a musical! This May we will present FROZEN!

Our goal, along with Disney Musicals in Schools, is to create a sustainable musical theatre program for all students to learn from and enjoy!

This is an awesome opportunity for not only the cast of this year's show, but for all students at our school!

My Project

Our students are ready to take the stage for their production of Frozen, but before they do we need to be sure the stage is ready! When our school was built we were not a Performing Arts an Technology school, so the stage was not designed with serious shows in mind.

We want to design a stage that helps the students bring the story to life while creating a backstage passage that keeps it running smoothly!

The curtains and track will help us divide the stage properly. The light curtains and make up will add to the special effects of the show and the casters will help us move props and scenery with ease! We are excited to add these for our show in May!
