This club is facilitated by the PTA and run by Teacher Amanda at Top Note Performing Arts. Teacher Amanda has been teaching theater and music to children for almost a decade and is very excited to return to Hynes. This program will give students the tools to express themselves, tell stories, build confidence, nurture leadership, and develop crucial team building skills - all while playing super fun games and exploring their imaginations! Learn more about Top Note Performing Arts by visiting their website.
