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

For our annual Haunted House, my students started using black lights to add cool effects to some of the thematic rooms. They have learned how to design elaborate paintings and paper-mache crafts with the use of fluorescent paint to make them glow under the light. They have even done Dia de los Muertos makeup with fluorescent makeup.

Their next mission with black lights is to do an entire play that glows in the light.

Please help my students get these lights to make our plays unique, fun, and exciting. Now that intermission is over, my students are eager to create and make things exciting for our school's community. Please help them do that.
