My Students
My students are extremely talented and hard-working. They have a sense of pride in their work that is evident in all that they do. Their desire to be the best motivates them to work hard and in turn, they have inspired those around them, including the underclassmen.
These children come from an economically depressed area that has been affected by two major hurricanes over the past three years.
These students are extremely talented and deserve this chance at being successful. They need to know that people believe in them and that they are worthy of support.
My Project
WHS students have been selected out of 100's of schools to perform at the world's largest performing arts festival: the Festival Fringe in Edinburgh, Scotland.
Our students will perform 4 times on an international stage as well as on the Royal Mile!
Accomplishing this international production will not only give our students valuable skills as performers, technicians, and marketers, but it will help develop a deeper understanding of the arts and the vital role the arts play in education and in our world.
Students will receive college credit, experience a performance in the West End of London, visit historic sites in Scotland, and choose between thousands of performances to watch at the Festival.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
