Drama can be a fun and memorable part of the middle and high school experience, helping students to build confidence in speaking and teaching them to work as a team.
In addition to acting projects assigned in speech classes, students can audition for school plays. Productions vary from year to year and have included, for example, a Christmas musical and a Sherlock Holmes mystery.
Dramatic productions also give interested students a chance to work behind the scenes as stage crew, running the lights, curtains and more.
