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.” In the world of Covid, my students' learned that "the show must go online." 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.

My 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

A few years ago our district replaced our sound system with a fancy new one. It has a wonderful program that allows you to mix sound for shows from the audience; however, this program is only compatible with an iPad.

Help my students get this iPad, protection plan, and case so they can mix sound like the professionals of Theatre, Music, and Dance.

This will provide my students with real world experience that will help them be career ready.

My students control sound and light for every show at our school, so this really benefits our whole campus.
