About Us
The Highland Drama Club is up and running for the first time in years! We have plans for many performances, and we are working hard to maintain the program.
Our club is student led and coordinated which allows students to really let their creativity thrive. We are so excited to see where this program goes and we hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
About our Organization
Thespian Society
The National Thespian Society is the only honors society in the nation that recognizes students in all aspects of preforming arts. Highland is working towards a functioning Thespian Chapter for the first time in around seven years. We are focused on bringing the arts into our campus and recognizes the creativity in students.
