Anything that helps kids grow in confidence and appreciate the arts is worthwhile in my opinion.

I just saw Beauty and the Beast at Norwell. Not only was the talent at a proffesional level, it shone in the area of diversity of all kinds. This is the kind of thing that one by one will change the hate in the world . Please save the program for these talented students and society in general.

The ARTS are very important and need to stay in our schools!!! Shame on those that want to take it away!

Unbelievable that this is happening. This program is such an asset to the school and to the wider community, not to mention what these young people learn about teamwork, giving back, feeling confident, and so, so much more.

This program has so much positive in a world of negative. Students need this to help pay it forward into a positive safe and happier world.

This is a unique program delivered in proximity to local assets (Drayton Theatre) and it can atttact students to the school since it’s not offered widely elsewhere. Grade 9 is a difficult year for students to adjust so having an exciting option for them to sign up for helps with that transition.

I wish I would of had this program when I was in grade 9. Arts is an escape for students who struggle to thrive in academic or athletic settings.

This program builds confidence and character. The teachers involved in this program build relationships with students that last a lifetime.

Performing Arts, including drama and music, are just as important as sports. The skills learned and used in these programs enhance development in all areas of life, including academics. The skills built in these programs go far beyond the classes. Cutting them is a very short-sighted plan.

This is a very valuable program that allow for much growth in your students. Very surprised by this decision. Will you be doing the same with the LEAF and Hockey programs then as well if they have low enrollment?
