Portage Township Schools Update, April 28, 2017

Myers Elementary
On April 23rd the Myers Drama Club got the chance to take a backstage tour of The Addams Family Musical at Portage High School. Students were able to experience the excitement and thrill of being part of a cast and crew as they checked out the sound booth, workshop, greenroom, and even stepped on stage! It was an amazing opportunity for students to see what they are working towards and got them even more pumped up about the arts.
