Keep Hinsdale drama alive!! These shows are so incredible and the talented students deserve a chance to keep them going!

After passing this referendum, we should have even more opportunities for the students not less and the arts are critical to growth. Valuing athletics above arts is a lack of true understanding of students diverse needs. Disappointing to say the least

Drama deserves to be reinstated. They're just as important as football.

So important for many reasons. As an alum I can say that performing in spring musicals was a highlight of my time at HCHS and so different from other things in which I participated.

Without the Drama department, my high school experience would have been a shadow of itself, and I'm sure my academic enthusiasm would've dropped. I was in 9 plays and musicals at HC, and AD'ed a freshman play. The rhythm of the school year for me surrounded the stage, and the program at both schools is vital to the whole-student experience our schools are known for. Full restoration is a must.

I’m a theater parent from another high school yet I’ve been to several Hindsdale productions! I truly hope this is reinstated as the theater is just as important as sports!

Many, many talented students, including my daughter (HCHS 2022), are very much looking forward to the drama club being reinstated.

If you still have to cut, start with the gender-bias sports.

Please restore the full drama program. “I believe arts education in music, theater, dance, and the visual arts is one of the most creative ways we have to find the gold that is buried just beneath the surface. They (children) have an enthusiasm for life a spark of creativity, and vivid imaginations that need training – training that prepares them to become confident young men and women.” – Richard W. Riley, Former US Secretary of Education

The drama department is an excellent way for children to express themselves and to grow and mature into confident adults!
