We’ll study a number of ten-minute plays, discuss various techniques for this form of story telling, and then workshop your plays in class. At the end of the course you’ll have a first draft of at least one, and maybe two plays that you can use to market yourself as a playwright. Textbook required, available at the Danvers bookstore.

FAQs Are there discounts if I sign up for two classes or have more than one child registering? North Shore Community College is committed to keeping the cost as low as possible, therefore, tuition is priced accordingly so that no other discount is available.

Why do classes sometimes get cancelled and how can I help to be sure they run? We need to give our instructors five days notice if their class is not going to run. Therefore, if we can get as many registrations in as early as possible, everyone wins.

Is my child always accompanied by an adult to classes and bathroom breaks?

Absolutely! Kids to College students (grades K–3) are taken as a group for bathroom breaks with a counselor. North Shore Academy students (grades 4–8) always go with a partner or counselor.

All instructors, counselors, and staff are CORI-checked for everyone’s safety.

How do I know if our class is cancelled due to inclement weather? The college is responsible for closing the college based on severe weather conditions. Call our weather line at 978-762-4200 if you have questions.

I see there is a crossover in some classes for kids in grades 4-8. Why is that? We have found that many kids taking classes in certain subjects work together well and it is not so much about age as it is ability!

Note: You will receive a medical history form and media release form in the mail.

You MUST complete and return by mail or on the first day of class. We cannot allow any student to attend class unless this paperwork is completed and returned.
