Integrity: Push yourself to work hard and cooperate in groups. Put your best work forward and be proud of what you share. THEATRE IS AN ACTIVE PARTICIPATION CLASS. Effort, cooperation, and participation will be rewarded. Attitude and cooperation warrants additional participation in showcases.
Diversity: We are all student-artists from a wide range of backgrounds and experiences. We honor equity, diversity, inclusion, and a sense of belonging where student voice is lifted up and celebrated.
Empowerment: Cooperation in group activities and willingness to share work. Encourage others to share. Give and receive constructive criticism for all to become better artists.

Any late work credit, if any, is at the teacher’s discretion. Bonus points can be earned for attending additional crew days or theatre performances.

Additional Theatrical Opportunities (examples):

Course Outcomes: The course outcomes can be found at the link below.
https://www.pcc.edu/ccog/ta/141/
Course Prerequisites: A ‘C’ or better in Intermediate Theatre Arts (Theatre 3-4), Advanced Theatre Arts (Theatre 5-6), and/or permission of the instructor. PCC Prerequisites: WR 115, RD 115 and MTH 20 or equivalent placement test scores. Audit available.
Attendance Policy/Late Work: Students are expected to attend each class meeting. If a student is absent, it is the student’s responsibility to find out what was covered in class and get the work completed in a timely manner (same number of class days absent plus one additional day). Since the class does not meet daily, it is imperative and expected that students attend every class, every week. If students are absent, whether excused or unexcused, during any pre-planned performances or tests, students may not be able to retake or makeup the performances or tests. No late work can or will be accepted. Any late work credit, if any, is at the teacher’s discretion. Teacher discretion will be used to determine any credit awarded and makeup options. See RHS attendance policy.
Course Grading/Assessment:
Prior to each unit, students will have a pre-assessment of their skills to determine their initial level. Throughout each unit, the student is given the remainder of the classes to work on and develop the skills necessary to offer and demonstrate skill and knowledge of the particular subject. In this performance-based class of such high expectations of learning and demonstration, it is unrealistic and unfair to assume that a student will be able to have “mastered” any one technique. At the end of each unit for the summative assessment, students will need to demonstrate at a “Proficient” level to earn PCC credit. Grading will also be based on the student’s preparedness for class, willingness to participate, cooperation with partners and in ensemble, completed reading and written assignments, quizzes, and of course performance/demonstration of acquired learning.
Grading results in proficiency scale grading of 1-4, with 1 as Immerging, 2 as Sufficient/Working Toward Proficiency, 3 as Proficient, 4 as Highly Proficient/Mastery. The letter grades earned are A – F. All grades will be averaged for a final semester grade of A, B, C, D or F. It is implied that A = 90-100, B= 80-90, C= 70-80, D= 60-70 and F= 0-60.
Unit grades will be averaged to provide midterm, quarter and semester grades. Final exams will follow the Roosevelt HS final examination schedule. Note: For PCC Dual Credit grade calculations, students will not be allowed to retake examinations.
