The drama department’s contribution to the service-learning program at this school is the Medieval Festival it organizes, involving most departments in the high school as well as the community. This event is a cross curricular project, including parental involvement, concentrating on a past time period. Students research medieval times while focusing on originality and creativity in the areas of literature, music, art, family life, health, and sports of the time period. Students apply academic skills and research by writing historically plausible scripts and music. All areas of the curriculum are involved including business and commerce with ticket sales and guild booths at the festival.

High school drama department’s Medieval Festival
Blue Eye R-V School - MT, Montana
We want to develop a student leadership program to provide support to our local agencies with the majority of work being done recruiting campus organizations to serve at various sites. The Campus Compact material was the most useful resource thus far. Thank you!
