From Classroom to Curtain: An inclusive Broadway Experience provides an opportunity for 8th grade King Philip Middle School students to see The Outsiders live on Broadway. As part of our curriculum, students deeply engage with S.E. Hinton's classic novel, exploring themes of identity, social justice, family, and empathy. Witnessing the live performance of this memorable story and student favorite will reinforce their learning, bring the text to life, and deepen their understanding of how literature can transcend time and medium to remain relevant and powerful.
