group of theater students

The Dance, Theater, and performance offerings at Scarborough High School are designed to give students an opportunity to experience creating art and performing it as well. In these classes students will be given the opportunity to express their thoughts, ideas, and feelings through movement, acting, and with music. Students do not need to have prior experience in these areas to be successful. Students will learn skills and techniques and develop new understanding and appreciation in these subject areas. Each of these classes is one semester in length.
