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 When a course is discovered to be outdated or lack sufficient information, then a request is sent to the teacher(s) to update the course.

Theatre Production is a revised course with a name change from Drama to Theatre Production and a course revision to bring the curriculum up to date. The process of production has become a fine art in itself with concourses of community theatres, regional playhouses, independent mainstream film companies, television studios, and various internet platforms. In Theatre Production students will occupy every role of a theatre production team, from the actors on the stage, to the crew behind the scenes as they collaborate to produce full scale productions from start to finish. This course was written for grades seven and eight.

The Theatre Production course has been approved by the Director of Curriculum and Instruction and the Assistant Superintendent of Educational Services.
