Coordinator Robyn Schmetzer said the annual event has once again been an excellent example of collaboration between schools across the Griffith area.
The displays are set to present challenging messages in a thought provoking and entertaining way, and will showcase the talents of students in creative arts.
"Over the 15 years, we have had over seven and a half thousand students take to the stage for KROP," she said.
The Education Week event will give students another way to express themselves, she said.
With the theme this year being 'Every Student, Every Voice', she highlighted the KROP performances as a way to give students who may lean towards creative arts to express themselves.
"Not everyone is academically minded, and this is the perfect chance for those students to take part in these performances."
