Starting in our early childhood classes, students are given an opportunity to speak in front of their peers. As our students get older, their audience grows! From the kindergarten plays and fourth-grade productions to the middle school musicals, Orchard students become increasingly confident in expressing themselves in front of an audience.

"A huge shout out to drama teacher Ms. Bernat on her first show with us...we are so happy you’re here. Middle school band director and fourth grade drama teacher Mr. Lauria, always a blast to have your guidance on hand for these kids. And fourth grade teacher Ms. Belmont— thank you for being such a spectacular teacher for this special group. They are so lucky to have you in the wings. Fourth grade plays are such an important demo of what kids and students can do together. Thanks for a great show, Belmont’s class!"
-Early Childhood and Elementary School Director Heather Girton
