Summary: The District's Educational Services Department has made recommendations for updates in our district-wide course catalog. When a course is discovered to be outdated or lack sufficient information, then a request is sent to the teacher(s) to update the course.

Intro to Stagecraft is the middle school extension of Theatre Production which will teach the basics of theatrical design, implementation, and production for students who are interested in set construction and decoration, lighting, sound, props, costumes, makeup, company or stage management, and arts administration. This course was written for grades seven and eight.
