For me it's a chance to talk to experienced drama teachers and
get ideas for plays to produce. These things, along with the day
to day mechanics I'm picking up, are things I can use in developing
my program and that will help my students.

I am looking forward to summer session with you all this year.
You have no idea how much I have learned
and how many doors have opened
because of your program.

I took Design Methodologies this summer
and came away with different ways to think
about design ideas that were inspirational.
Exploring Drama in the Classroom
gave excellent ideas for taking many types
of literature and making it come alive through
movement and vocal work.
