Through the K-12 Sequential Dramatics Program, produced by Merry-Go-Round Youth Theatre, MMCSD is one of more than 180 schools in New York State to bring live professional theatre to our students. As the largest touring children’s theatre in Upstate New York and one of the largest in the country, the Merry-Go-Round Youth Theatre provides a complete series of curriculum-based plays, classroom lessons, and creative workshops throughout the school year to provide a continuum of learning across the grade levels. Some of our 6th grade students are beginning the first steps to writing their very own Merry-Go-Round play!
