BarnArts Youth Theater Camp!
Registration is open for BarnArts Summer Youth Theater camp and I want to be sure RMS has info about this popular and impactful program, particularly noting that we have scholarship support available. We would love to find kids for whom this program is a good fit but perhaps normally have obstacles of finances or transportation. Our program really makes a difference in many kids' lives, and we are actively seeking local kids who could benefit the most.
This year we'll be producing High School Musical - a teen-focused Disney musical with a uniting message. Our cast includes kids ages 8-18 and High School Musical is a great ensemble show for experienced actors and new kids with an interest in performing. We organize our Summer Youth Theater as a 3-week day camp (plus performance weekend) to make it easy for families. We're also happy to connect families coming from the same area to consider carpool options.

For more than 60 years the Friends of Hanover-Norwich Schools has provided grants to enrich the curriculum of our four public schools. Gifts from community members make this work possible. Earlier this year, the Friends voted to: support a collaborative poetry curriculum and recitation night to create a bond between rising seventh graders at Marion Cross School and Richmond Middle School; underwrite expansion of the Solar Eclipse Ballooning project at Hanover High School to include more students; facilitate access to an online library for all students at Marion Cross School; and purchase technology to upgrade science laboratories and English classrooms in both elementary schools, pilot a digital photography elective in the middle school, and bring art history alive in the high school. Please consider a donation to the Friends during this season of gratitude and giving back. Please give online or mail your contribution to: PO Box 882, Hanover, NH 03755
Checks should be made payable to The Friends of Hanover-Norwich Schools (FHNS).
