Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

My students are a group of aspiring young thespians who have learned that “the show must go on.” We all share the common mission to grow our theatre program, increase the quality of our performances, and create a community that loves the arts.

My students are so committed to the work and collaboration they do.

There is really no business like show business.

These students are courteous, committed, helpful, and safe. I feel that they are also some of the most deserving. Please show my students that our society values the arts.

My Project

This year for our annual haunted house, my students are looking to have a glow in the dark neon room with the help of black lights.

Every year my student become more innovative in their design.

Especially when events in society occur and I have to veto a room; for example, the clown room.

Some of our haunted house rooms need to be changed and with the black lights, the world of the room can be created to meet my students' vision. Our haunted house brings in members of the community and keeps our students out of trouble during the holiday season. Please help with our vision.
