The Archbishop Ryan Theater Arts Parents Association is asking for your support in our continuing endeavor to assist the theater arts program at Archbishop Ryan High School. Studies have shown that students who are involved in theater arts as part of their educational experience: earn higher achievement test scores; excel in reading comprehension; and develop excellent communication skills. Participation in a theater program also allows students to build their self-esteem and learn to work as part of a group toward achieving a common goal.
Thanks to the generosity of local businesses last year, we were able to help in the production of two shows, which were enjoyed by: the students, staff and administration of the school, their families, alumni and members of the community, and we were able to make necessary repairs to the theater that will allow for the continuation of the program for future students.
From November 18th – 21st, 2016, the Archbishop Ryan Theater Arts Parents Association will be raffling off baskets for a fundraiser to raise money to help defray the expenses incurred during the two productions of the 2016 – 2017 school year. We would be most appreciative if your business could make a donation of some kind (gift certificate or donate a door prize) that would help to offset the expenses of our fundraiser. Not only will your contribution benefit our children, but also, at this fundraiser, your contributions will be publicly acknowledged.
