Teachers rise to the occasion in Shakespeare Festival/LA’s Will Power to Schools in-service program.

Will Power to Schools is a dynamic in-service session that reinvigorates and energizes Shakespeare teaching and learning in the classroom.

Middle and high school teachers in the Southland who attend receive training in proven methods that can revolutionize the way they teach classical literature to students through innovative strategies that make Shakespeare accessible to all.

Will Power to Schools offers instructional strategies that are aligned with the California State Board of Education’s Theatre and Reading/Language Arts Standards.
