Parent Note

Dear Drama Club Parents,
Thank you for signing up your child for the Calais Recreation Association Drama Program.  This is an introductory co-ed program for any child in the first, second or third grade.  We are excited about working with the kids and take our coaching responsibilities seriously.  Our coaching philosophy is simple.  We want every child to have fun.  Throughout the season, we will lead by example in teaching the kids the fundamentals of Drama.  A couple of our main objectives will be to promote a positive team atmosphere and help the kids believe ion themselves while learning theater basics.  The basics will emphasize stage presence (projection, confidence,m placement), singing, acting, and dancing.  Each child should bring a filled water bottle to each practice and performance.  We will provide the school with a copy of our roster to allow your child to stay after school.  You do not need to send a bus note after the first week.  Changes to your child's schedule should be communicated to the coaches.

Practice:  Our practice schedule will start Monday, October 6th and will continue at least through December 15th.  Practice and performances will be held at Calais School in the gym.  Practice will run from after school to 5:15 pm every Monday afternoon.  Parents are responsible for transportation to and from practice and to and from performance.  Please be prompt at pickup as the gym will need to be available for Basketball starting next month.  Remember please that Drama Program is not being facilitated by the school so changes to your child's schedule/pickups must be communicated to one of the coaches.  
Cat Fair, Sage Kennedy, Eileen Peltier, and Diane Dexter
