Many children with special needs are told they can't or that their disability hinders them from doing many things that their general education peers can but here at P94 we are breaking barriers and showing our community through theatre and the arts--WE CAN! Every year our school puts on a full scale musical production, created, performed and run by our students. The importance of the arts permeates through all we do and our students thrive. Without updated technology however, it hinders our students from reaching their fully capacity and we want them to experience what the true world of theatre is really like! We have requested both a portable PA system and wireless microphone set because the ones we currently have are old and are making performances for our students challenging. We want our students to know the value and feel how valued they are by providing them with updated equipment. Receiving these materials would push our productions to the next level and allow our students to learn how to utilize tech equipment related to the theatre while also being able to bring their performances to the next level as well.
