Description: Our junior high theatre program provides students with hands-on, project-based learning in set construction, prop building, and stage production. This grant for wall storage bins will create an organized, accessible system for storing small hardware items such as screws, nuts, bolts, and washers.

With clearly labeled, easy-to-access storage, students can efficiently retrieve the materials they need, allowing them to spend more time actively building, designing, and problem-solving. This supports authentic learning experiences by enabling students to engage fully in the creative process-from planning and construction to execution-while developing organizational skills, attention to detail, and personal responsibility.

The grant also fosters collaboration and workflow efficiency, as students can work together in a structured environment that mirrors real-world production practices. By enhancing our workshop with streamlined storage, students gain the tools and space to focus on creativity, technical skill development, and meaningful hands-on learning, turning every theatre project into an engaging and impactful educational experience.
