Drama Club - The Can-Do KidsLed by Miss Susan, the "Can-Do" Kids have been a part of the ASD family since 2000. Every year, students in grades 5 -8 have the ability to join the drama club. Singing, dancing, and acting only scratch the surface of the skills and values our Can-Do Kids learn on their seven month journey. The culminating musical performance occurs in the Spring (March or April) for three glorious nights. Past shows have included, Grease, Beauty and the Beast.
We encourage all to join regardless of their talent level. Miss Susan always says, "there are no small parts, only small actors and actresses." With practices every Tuesday, and some Sundays, the Drama Club has become a staple here at ASD.

ASD School Band
For the past three years Paul Effman Music has helped us create the ASD Band. This is their fourth year working with the students. The the instructors allow the children to explore numerous instruments. Starting with the violin, students have the ability to progress to playing the flute, trumpet, clarinet, and some others! The program is extremely successful here at ASD. Students practice once a week after school. It is so great to watch the stuents who have been in it since it started grow as junior musicians. We cannot wait for the recital in June!
