“Good teaching is one-fourth preparation and three-fourths theatre.” - Gail Godwin.

Americans for the Arts, the nation’s leading nonprofit for advocacy of the arts, found that young people engaging in the arts for at least three hours on three days each week through at least one full year are: 4 times more likely to be recognized for academic achievement and participate in math and science fairs, as well as 3 times more likely to be elected to class office within their schools and win an award for school attendance.
