Every Thursday, our Kindergarten students can't wait to see Mrs. Julissa Sabino! She is coming from The Alliance Theatre Institute. They are partners with school districts and schools to deliver professional learning for educators and arts integrated or theater-based instruction for students. Designed to support school curriculum and individual classroom goals across grade levels and content areas, Institute programs include: residencies, student workshops, and professional learning events.

Institute initiatives are aligned with the Georgia Standards of Excellence and Georgia Early Learning and Development Standards and yield proven results in students’ academic achievement and social-emotional growth. Additionally, these offerings provide teachers the opportunity to engage in job-embedded professional development by collaborating with professional teaching artists who embody high quality artistry and utilize their art form to positively impact school communities.
