Theatre 1


Welcome to the Theatre Department!

I am looking forward to working with your student in my class.  Theatre 1 is a very work intensive class.  There will not be a lot of homework for this class, but we will be doing an immense amount of work during class.  Everyday your child is in my class, they will receive a performance grade.  They must perform and participate everyday in class.  There will be a lot of group work and so each student must contribute to the group material.  If your child does not participate or perform on that day in class, they will receive a zero.

A note about absences:
Please remember that because they are graded daily on performance, if your child is absent, you must send a written note to the attendance office to excuse the absence or they will have a zero.  I will audit my grade book with the attendance calendar once every week (or so) and if the attendance office has either an unexcused absence or unverified, your child will receive a zero.  According to KGHS policies, a phone call is not sufficient to excuse the absence, although we appreciate when you call in to let us know they won't be there.  However, it must be a written note turned in to Ms. Bienz in attendance.       

If you have questions or concerns, please email me.
