  • 1.  Musical Theatre PE Credit-California

    Posted 02-25-2020 16:02
    Hi awesome humans!

    Does anyone teach/know of a year-long musical theatre class for PE credit in California?  If yes, would you be willing to share your info (course description, syllabus, etc.) with me as I try to navigate the waters of adding a supplemental PE credential to my life and new course to my program, pretty please?

    Thank you!

    Thanks for posting this Merica. I'm also interested in this. I have a half a credit musical theatre course running next year combined with a tech theatre class. I was hoping to convince the school that this could also count as a PE credit. Our band students get a half PE credit in the fall for marching band, so I'm hopeful.
