Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Reach sixteen new students between the ages of 7-17 and eight students aged 17+ who may have had at least one experience with Drama Interaction in the past. Insure that 75% of students develop new skills in expression and demonstrate an ability to share those skills during the culmination period of the class. Student enrollment numbers and participant intake forms which give an indication of prior experience with DI. Verbal and written evaluation after each class period.

Measurable Outcome(s)

13 students participated along with many of their parents. The program stretched student creativity, helped develop confidence and forge new relationships in a time when socializing has been difficult. Parental feedback showed success in providing a safe way of getting positive social interaction with other young people while finding productive and creative ways of personal expression.
