Performing Arts

Ascend Leadership Academy offers a dedicated theatre and musical arts program for students looking to grow their talent and showmanship. From annual shows to seasonal concerts, the Performing Arts Department aims to provide opportunities for students to participate in roles on-stage and behind-the-scenes.

Performing Arts Program

ALA’s Performing Arts Program is an after school theatre performance program open to middle and high school students. This program produces a variety of events throughout the year, including a fall play and a spring musical. Students in the Performing Arts Program work alongside students in the ALA Tech Crew to create an authentic theatrical experience that puts students at the forefront of creative leadership.
