My Project

We have built a large culture around the arts at our school. Thanks to this, we are able to provide an amazing opportunity for our students to be in various programs, including a theatre class!

The students in our theatre class are hard-working, passionate, fun, exciting, and overall great kids.

They love acting, playing different personality characters, and of course, getting dressed in costumes and making the scenery for the show! I find that my favorite parts of my job include the students in the theatre program. They are always willing to go above and beyond and make a play really shine! I couldn't be more proud of these students and truly believe they deserve everything in the world.

The backdrops we are requesting will help us set the scene perfectly for our upcoming medieval-themed musical! These 5 backdrops will be used as a backdrop on the back of the stage and one for each side of the stage for characters to hide behind.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
