We have revamped drama!!

I am SO excited to have a drama class during the school day. This class will cover the basics of theater, with a culminating “final project” where the entire class will perform at the CT Drama Festival! The last time we participated in CDA was right after I I was in high school, so it will be great to get back in the competitive theater game. Drama class will be a great “brain break” during the school day– lots of theater games, moving around, and practice with real life skills (public speaking, confidence, etc). I can’t wait to get started!
