Ayden C, Aurora H, Bryson P, Elizabeth R (violas), Maya J, Noah F, Anneliese G (violins), Alex F, Mishael A (cellos), and Jaaziah A (string bass) made our school and arts program proud. Moore Square had more students selected than any other middle school in the region!
- Theater Arts News
The students here are Moore Square are incredibly talented and dedicated to our theatre program. Even though our school doesn't have an auditorium, the students' enthusiasm and creativity turn our gym into a true performance space! The biggest challenge we face is amplifying student voices so the audience can hear their incredible talent. Our program is in need of an upgrade: not only to replace damaged systems but also to increase the number of systems we use to reflect the growth of the program.
