FRC Elementary School Drama Program is an award winning, locally recognized performing arts program in Jersey City, New Jersey. The group is made up of a diverse community of many ethnic backgrounds and social statuses.
The Drama Program at my school is a nationally recognized group and consist of students from third to sixth grade.
Performances by the group takes place throughout the year at community festivals, national competitions, and school productions. The Kidz are excited to embark on the 2018-2019 school year.
My Project
Due to district budget cuts, our performing arts students do not receive textbooks, scripts, or other resources for use in the classroom. The classroom printer has broken and is not being replaced by the school. The Xerox Workcentre 6515/n printer will allow us to print robust, diverse literary, theatrical, scripts, and sheet music from a diverse collection of playwrights, poets, and lyricists. These additional materials will help enrich the educational experience for the drama student. Because of lack of resources specific to the niche elementary musical theater genre, the drama teacher must create, print and copy various worksheets and assessments. We would use the Amazon Basics copy paper to xerox copies. Additionally, because of the sheer volume of the materials being copied and printed (some scripts can be over 100 pages), we need Toner Tap xerox compatible toner cartridges.
