Ms. Karol believes in creating a safe, positive environment in which students feel comfortable taking creative risks which foster both artistic and personal growth. A true educator, she believes students must be taught applicable skills and provided with authentic opportunities to practice them. Within the framework of collaboration, Ms. Karol is supportive of student progress at every step of the process, facilitating growth in student confidence and success. 


She has observed the unique capabilities of drama to provide students with skills that aid their success in school, college, the workplace, and beyond. Competencies and values exhibited by drama students include teamwork, creative problem solving, compassion, dedication, and discipline; all of which are necessary in our diverse and innovative culture.
