Albany High Theater Ensemble
The arts make a tremendous impact on developmental growth and help to level the learning field across socio-economic boundaries. Students develop critical thinking, craftsmanship, quality task performance, goal setting, teamwork, communication skills, flexibility, imagination, and confidence needed for the classroom and beyond. Problem-solving in the demanding, creative, and collaborative world of the theatre gives our participants skills sought by today’s business community.
And here in Albany High's Theater Ensemble program, we strive to foster unity across culture, social class and identity groups in our richly diverse student body. Students form a family of inclusiveness, which enables them to make lasting bonds with peers who are different from them, and fosters a sense of joy in celebrating diversity.
