Abstract	During the last three years, Lincoln Middle School has been the site of a Professional Development School partnership in conjunction with the Illinois State University Middle School Department. With more than 90% of its 400-plus students receiving free or reduced price lunches, Lincoln is an eight-year-old, "Title I" building whose students come from the North side of Peoria. Like many high poverty schools, Lincoln is on the State of Illinois School Watch list, due to low scores on the annual standardized exams. This article describes how a group of four student teachers who were completing the final year of their teacher preparation created an after-school drama club at Lincoln Middle School. The drama club was aimed to teach urban middle school students about the role that young adolescents had during the Civil Rights movement in the Southern United States. This article also presents the positive outcomes experienced by the students who participated in the drama club and the learning opportunities obtained by the student teachers who created it. (ERIC).
