Since 2010 Teatro Izcalli has been focused on teaching teatro and writing to the next generation of storytellers. Teatro Izcalli has always embraced the position that culturally relevant instructional strategies is what is needed to further engage our youth in school. Our work ensures that youth will have a safe space where their experiences can be shared and validated. For the academic year 2017-2018, Teatro Izcalli will begin it’s third year residency with the SDUSD Arts for Learning Initiative to continue this important work.
Teatro Izcalli is very proud of all their teatro students from over the years beginning with Patrick Henry High School students who named their group “Teatro Otra Vez” to our current students at the Creative, Performing, Media, Arts School.
