I'M STANDING IN FRONT OF >> MESA ARTS ACADEMY. THIS IS A SCHOOL THAT SERVES 5TH THROUGH 8TH GRADE AND IT CONTINUES TO GROW BIG TIME. IT PROVIDES STUDENTS WITH AN INNOVATIVE ARTS PROGRAM AND IT WAS ALL THANKS TO A NONPROFIT COMMUNITY GROUP CALLED THE PETER PAN JUNIOR THEATER THAT HELP LAUNCHED THIS PROGRAM AND REALLY INSTILL AND CHANGED THE LIVES OF SO MANY STUDENTS IN THE AREA.

SOMETIMES WE HAVE TO BUILD IT. IT DIDN'T EXIST BEFORE WE WERE DOING PETER PAN, WE'VE GOT THESE 3 D PRINTED COOKS FOR CAPTAIN HOOK. THE NONPROFIT YOUTH THEATER HAS BEEN AROUND FOR 54 YEARS. TEACHING YOUNG KIDS IN THE MESA SPRING VALLEY SCHOOL DISTRICT, ALL ABOUT THE ARTS FIRST GOT INVOLVED WHEN HE WAS IN THE 4TH GRADE. THEN HE BECAME A TEACHER. I TOOK OVER THE APPROXIMATELY 33 YEARS AGO. REFOCUS THE THEATER INSTEAD OF JUST DOING THE SHOW TO REALLY FOCUS ON. >> CHARACTER LEADERSHIP, INCLUSION AND KINDNESS. THAT'S ALL YOU WANT TO CREATE. THE PETER PAN THEATER GOT SO POPULAR. FELT THE NEED TO EXPAND AND PROVIDE EVEN MORE STUDENTS WITH THE OPPORTUNITY. SO IN 2007, WE DEVELOPED A CAPTAIN HOOK THEATER TO GO PETER PAN THEATER. >> AND IT'S FOR 9TH THROUGH 12TH GRADERS. NOT ONLY THAT, IT WAS THE INSPIRATION FROM THIS THEATER THAT HELPED DEVELOP WHEN THEY START ACADEMY THE 4TH THROUGH 8TH GRADE MODEL.
