Our goal is to have at least 100 students between the ages of Kindergarten and 12th grade participate in our week long program and workshops. Our second goal is to have an additional 35 students involved and participating in our theatrical workshops that are provided three times during the week. The workshops are available to all students including students that did not make the cut to be part of the live theater performance. We also have a goal of having 400 people from our community come to our live performance on Friday, August 10th. Our last goal is to have 75% of our downtown businesses collaborate with Community Education to advertise for our live theater performance. Our online registration system is able to provide us with direct results of ages and amount of students registered for the week and workshops. We also sell tickets at our public event so we can track the amount of community members that attend. For our business collaboration goal we have a list of businesses from our chamber of commerce that we use to guide us in choosing our downtown businesses that can help us advertise.
