This course is designed to give students broad exposure to the three fundamental performing arts: music, theater, and dance. The ultimate goal of this course is to build a greater appreciation of the performing arts through study as well as participatory experience. Throughout the year we will focus on each of the arts individually as well as explore how they frequently overlap. Students will sing, play instruments, act, and dance but no prior training or aptitude is needed. Students will also gain a deeper understanding of the performing arts through the study of history, basic theory, and individuals who have made significant contributions in each of these three areas. This class will be a fun way for students to encounter the performing arts up close and personal while gaining a greater appreciation for them.

I am currently director of 1st-3rd grade choir at Harris Creek Baptist Church. My hobbies and passions include singing and playing the guitar. I have performed in numerous choral groups and ensembles throughout high school, college, and beyond. My favorite performing arts memory is playing the role of 'Laurie' in the musical Oklahoma.
