My Project

Numerous studies have demonstrated a correlation between drama involvement and academic achievement. In addition to having higher standardized test scores than their peers who do not experience the arts, student who participate in drama often experience improved reading comprehension, maintain better attendance records, and stay generally more engaged in school.

Please help me make putting on a school play a reality by supplying the things necessary for this to happen.

Without these supplies, including palms and luau skirts, and the generous help of Donorschoose and their donors, our play would not be able to happen.
