Depends on what year I suppose. I heard that was approximately the size of my dad’s class also in the 70’s. Things are definitely fluid.

I believe that the school district has 1100 kids at any given point of time. Since it's preschool through 12th grade it makes sense that the class size is smaller than 100 per class.

You're right. I just did the math. The school budget was 33 million and with only 1100 kids that's 30k per child. That's way over the national average of 17600 per student

And you know there are about 10 kids in drama school.  And residents were duped into a $20M tax for their theater.  There were better options than sucking residents dry.

I came from an area where my graduating class was over 1,000,  did not know all of them, how could I.

We are not that here.  And shouldn't be.

“ And you know there are about 10 kids in drama school. And residents were duped into a $20M tax for their theater. There were better options than sucking residents dry.”

WHAT?!?!?!

Where did you get the numbers for kids in the theatre program?
I just choreographed the Wizard of Oz and we had more than 30 kids in the ensemble alone, nevermind the leads and secondary parts. There are over 30 kids in the high school band next year, plus chorus, musical theatre, and the different guitar and theory classes.
At the middle school level, there is over 80 students in the two bands, not counting the chorus. The little mermaid musical I choreographed for them had well over 30 students in it.
The music and theatre program at Mascoma is quickly out populating the athletic programs, which no one seems to bat an eye at the budget for.
There is also an active AV club at both the middle school and high school levels; some of the students having been accepted to the prestigious St. Paul’s summer school to further their education in the AV industry.

Having performed in just about every theatre in the upper valley, this theatre is one of the nicest for performers and audiences alike and, eventually, the district should be able to pull in funds from traveling performers because, when it becomes available to the public, the public will choose this theatre. Maybe that’s the conversation we need to be having.

All that aside, it is well documented through excessive research that studying music develops areas of the brain that cannot be simulated with any other form of academics. It is the only thing my children go to the school for; it is that important to brain development.
Music and theatre, literally, make our students more intelligent and successful.

Mostly, your *fact of “ten kids…” is 100% wrong, so please do not spread misinformation.

Right on Tammi!

I've taken a supporting role at the high school in regards to theater productions (Costumer Rebecca Stewart)and there were a lot of students in the production from actors, musicians, and all the stage crew.

The Arts are extremely important and should be supported.

I agree with your point that outside performers would be an excellent addition and a source of revenue and entertainment a bit closer to home. Maybe Enfield restaurants could take advantage.

& btw Obadiah, the theater did not cost 20M.

I would add that the auditorium has been used for overflow for the indoor sports teams when gym is at capacity and the game can be projected.  It has been used when the climate prevents ceremonies from taking place outdoors.  It’s also used for the entire district…middle school and elementary schools
Both holding concerts there.  

The auditorium is newer than other local facilities, but totally in line with the size and needs of our district.  The truth is some people are unhappy with investing tax dollars into public schools.  Sorry they feel that way, but the overwhelming majority of the Mascoma community fully support it.
