CYS In-Schools programs offer a variety of performance-based Shakespeare learning opportunities for students in grades K-12 during the school day. In-Schools programs are designed specifically for each school's curriculum and student learning goals, and can range in scope from Shakespeare performances and stand-alone workshops to multi-day immersions and long-term residency programs.
The workshops brought me closer together with my peers. I interacted with people I usually don’t talk to, and I have made new friendships that will last a lifetime. - 10th grader
CYS teaching artists make Shakespeare come alive in the classroom by providing hands-on experiences that engage students actively and collaboratively in the learning process. Thank you CYS! I learned that I'm more versatile than I think. I learned that I should never apologize for what I love. I learned never to give up. - 7th grader |
