Original content
​We're thrilled to grow the list of Original Content events to include Original Prose Interpretation, Original Poetry, Poetry Slam, PSA Film, 15-minute Plays. In all events, students perform their own original work and receive feedback from critics on content and presentation. 

We're also excited to announce the Vital Voices Festival to give students a chance to showcase their thoughts, ideas and feelings around the theme, "With Liberty and Justice for All".
Key Dates
TBD

Students create an original 30-second Public Service Announcement - including script writing, acting, shooting and production.
