My Project
I am a performing arts teacher in a title 1 public school. We have a large population of immigrant and English Language Learners. We have started our performance art program recently and we will be performing Willy Wonka! Our students are a vibrant, talented, and passionate group of dancers and singers who take pride in their performances and never cease to amaze me. However, we are lacking the technical aspects to take our performances to the next level. Specifically, lighting design. Up until this point our shows have been very basic with limited stage lighting. The lights I am requesting will enhance the performance of the students throughout the show. The lights will help the audience see the transition of different scenes and provide spotlight for solo performances.
My goal is to enhance the overall performance experience for my English Language Learners and immigrant students.
I am asking for your help to make this experience, a memorable and valuable one for the students. Throughout the production students will have new opportunities to perform and gain exposure to public speaking and develop confidence. If you could make this at all possible, it would be tremendously appreciated.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
