In California, less than half of all foster youth graduate from high school and even fewer attend higher education. Aviva High School helps at-risk teenage girls get their lives back on track, graduate high school, and go on to post-secondary education. 95% of our graduates go on to vocational schools, community colleges, and/or universities. “We’re taking back our futures.” That’s how the girls at Aviva High School describe how their lives have changed. Many of our students first arrive with negative feelings about school, with histories of multiple failures, suspensions and expulsions. However, after a few months of working in classrooms with a 6:1 student-to-teacher ratio, they start to imagine the coming years with specific plans and goals. They start dreaming not only of graduating but continuing their education beyond high school. And they know Aviva will be beside them and their families at every step. Our students tell stories of being let down, frustrated and bounced around larger schools before they came to Aviva. They describe Aviva High School as having close-knit classes, teachers who understand their individual needs and teach without judgment, and counselors who are available down the hall when feelings get tough. It’s about finally going to a school where students realize the value of their skills, discover their innate ability to help others, and learn how to be responsible for their choices and actions. In short, Aviva High School is a unique and safe place where girls can grow, strive and dream more than they dared to before. Visit our website at www.avivacenter.org for more information about our High School and other services.

DRAMMA INTERNATIONAL THEATRE ENSAMBLE (Teatro Dramma) needs your support to keep our research on new and different codes for theatrical communication. This time through Judgment on a Gray Beach. After graduating NYU Tisch with a Master Fine Arts and Theater Direction; In a traditional, conservative, and naturalist training, there was something that always bothered Elia: All the atmospheres that were created in the play were very seductive but when the dialogue started there was a growing need in Elia for the actor to stop talking. So, in the questioning of this need is where Teatro Dramma and it’s unorthodox process begins. Teatro Dramma explores how action and movement become much more important than the word. “The wonderful satisfaction happens when physical actions substitutes dialogue” said Mrs. Schneider. When actions and movement communicate, the space starts taking presence and dimension; To this add music, sounds, light, poetry and a new code is created. The way of connecting is not necessarily a realistic action-reaction. It creates a magnifying glass that amplifies life’s mundane actions. Consequently, these actions start acquiring a slightly expressionist dimension and turns them into metaphorical ideas. Ideas that we cross and do every day but never really observe. All this is centered in the vision of an author who has a clear, accurate, and realistic vision of how society works in his time that is current today, Franz Kafka. By presenting these new codes, Dramma International Theatre Ensamble doesn’t want to present an opinion, but the truth of different observations to start a dialogue with and between the audience.
