My Project

Our students have developed a passion for the arts. They look forward to the magic that they experience while on stage performing for their families post-COVID-19. After the pandemic, parents have not been able to return to the school building. These materials will help us create an amazing experience for everyone!

The students and families will get to experience the joy of show day that will create memories for a lifetime.

Our students will use the requested materials like LED stage lights, a diner-style hotdog steamer, and costumes to help put on an amazing movie themed performance for their families. Exploring the performing arts will help students express a range of emotions in a healthy, controlled environment. They will learn how to express themselves through art, build confidence, work collaboratively on various performances, and learn about the many different moving parts of "showbiz!”
