I think it is wonderful that you are doing research into ITS.
Every school may handle the first 10 points differently. At our school, you have to work in at least two shows at the school in order to get inducted. Being in outside shows is not a problem, however, it just takes documentation. I required a letter from the director with the amount of hours the student spent on their show as evidence. Each director may do it differently. We only allow 5 points (50 hours) of outside work to be counted per year, this was to ensure that the student prioritized helping the troupe at the school.
Congratulations for your part,
Break a leg and have a wonderful year,

Thank you all for your replies. My school does have ITS as a program however we do not start school for another 2 weeks. I just wanted to do some research on how points are earned. I know that 50% of your first 10 points can be earned out side of school. I was just cast in Sweeney Todd teen at a community theater so I was wonder how that would work. Thank you again in advance.

I think the great thing about becoming a thespian is that you can put that on any resume or college application and it shows that you don't just attend school but you participate in activities beyond the regular curriculum. ITS also has tons of ways for you to get where on the web. Your school has to have a Thespian troupe in order for you to collect points.

Hello all ! I just heard about ITS and I was wondering if anyone can explain the point system (how it works and how you get points) and what it means to be inducted and why its important to me as a High School freshmen? Thanks in advance.
