A transformative experience that enables scholars
to conquer fears and develop character
This innovative Academy allows our scholars to have a platform to collaborate across Propel Schools and gives them a space to create and express themselves through various art forms. Scholars are accepted into this competitive showcase through an extensive audition process. Selected scholar-artists then meet throughout the school year in preparation for our performances. The program is an excellent opportunity for scholars who desire to pursue the arts as a career. Many others find this to be a transformative expedition into self-discovery and self-empowerment.
