Course Descriptions |

Theatre— Theatre Arts at the middle school level is a year long elective course which incorporates history, mime, presentation, improvisation, technical theatre and full theatre production. Students also learn audience behavior and evaluation techniques.
Speech— Students are introduced to the elements of basic speech and communication while they study and participate in activities covering interpersonal and group communication, public speaking and the performing art of acting.
Center Stage / Playbill (8th grade only)— At HMS, this is a year long class. Students must audition at the end of their 7th grade year to be placed in this advanced theatre class. Students will have the opportunity to compete in speech tournaments and the UIL One-Act Play contest, as well as perform in other productions for the school and community. This class is designed especially for those students seriously interested in pursuing theatre at a higher level. |
