My Project

We have been blessed in past years to have funded some very large and costly projects to get microphones to help in our productions. Our donors have been truly amazing and supportive. Once again we are looking for the same great response from interested music and theater enthusiast. This smaller project is focused on replacing an older, heavier, and less safe backstage divider system. Fortunately, the school music budget was large enough to help get the project started. We just lack two additional side panels that are the focus of this project.

These new curtain rods and curtains will be added to those we were able to purchase with district funds.

They will be easier to work with and allow for quicker build up and break down. They are much lighter and easier for students to manage and work with as back stage crew. This is a very important aspect of running an efficient and safe stage.

They can also be used to help with our grade level programs and other various school wide related events. It's going with out saying that they will be well used!!
