Annual Report - JumpStart Theatre's Year in Review
Introducing the JumpStart Theatre Annual Report! Take a closer look inside the program and the impact that we made during the 2017-2018 school year:
Recognition for Holmes' Students
Congratulations to JumpStart Theatre graduate, Holmes Middle School! Holmes recently received a
New Troupe Charter Grant
from the
International Thespian Society
. The grant will allow Holmes to recognize and reward the three years of hard work their students poured into building their musical theatre program through JumpStart Theatre. Fellow graduate, Finneytown Middle School, received the grant and chartered their Junior Thespian troupe last fall and has already inducted 13 students!

Arts and Humanities Day in Kentucky
Lead JumpStart Theatre Mentor, Dee Anne Bryll, and JumpStart Theatre Program Manager, Ginny Butsch, led a workshop and attended an Arts Fair for the
Northern Kentucky Cooperative for Educational Services
Arts and Humanities Day. Kentucky teachers attended a variety of workshops taught by local arts and education professionals, covering topics on everything from physical education to creating rubrics to using technology in an arts classroom. Dee Anne's workshop was an abbreviated version of a full-day JumpStart Theatre bootcamp, generating excitement and plenty of laughter as attendees learned some great warm-ups to use in any classroom and five dance steps in five minutes.

Congratulations, Ligia!
This summer, the Cincinnati Reds recognized Roberts Academy teacher, Ligia Cuevas Johnson, as the game's honorary team captain at its Great American Ball Park game against the Miami Marlins. The honorarium was in recognition of Ligia's work with the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers to engage students in the school's Robotic Club. Ligia is a key member of the JumpStart Theatre team at Roberts and plans to use theatre to help her students who are English Language Learners. A well deserved recognition for Ligia, as she works to ensure that all of her students find a welcoming place to learn and grow.
