* Students who are already enrolled may have the option of joining the leadership team for these ensembles. Students must gain the teachers approval to enter this distinctive program. Students who wish to take on this leadership opportunity will be expected to follow an additional curriculum for these respective courses which will require some extra time commitments outside of class. Topics covered include servitude leadership, forming a mission statement, setting goals for the year, organising events, communicating effectively, and leading sectional rehearsals. These students will be recognised for their leadership role by adding “with leadership” to their course which will appear on the transcript.
