Drama Club
Advisor: Danielle Miller
Drama Club consists of a group of students who hold a passion for theatre arts. These students participate in multitudes of activities that help hone in their craft as artists while also empowering the individual through self-expression. Students participate in the high school musical, the district musical, the STANJ competition, the NJ Thespians Festival, the Teen Arts Competition, and the NJDFL competition. Students also host two fundraisers per month that always include activities geared towards our elementary schools as a way of promoting teamwork while also becoming role models within the community. Meetings take place twice a month, while drama club activities happen daily after school. It is the drama clubs ultimate goal to be able to attend the International Thespians Festival held in June at the University of Lincoln Nebraska annually.
At the 2019 NJ Thespians Festival:

(We are now our states representative to perform at the International Thespians Festival in June) Only 1 play per state gets to perform at ITF.
