       Award Winning.  Published. Far from Ordinary.  ELC Drama.

The ELC Drama Program offers grade 9 through 12 drama.  All courses are designed to challenge the whole student in a safe environment.  Students are encouraged to take risks, overcome performance anxiety - and step out of their comfort zone in order to bring forth their unique form of creative  expression.  The Grade 9 program focusses on BEING BRAVE, the grade 10 program focusses on BEING HEARD, grade 11 BEING SEEN, and Grade 12, BEING PROFESSIONAL.  Students in grade 11 and 12 have the opportunity to test their unique creations by performing in public forums.   Drama, like no other subject can, engages the whole learner in an exciting and active way.   We exercise multiple intelligences, and divergent thought processing - creative  and critical thought are fundamental to what we do!

Ms. Jennifer Benson, M.A., HBA., B.Ed./ Head of (and behind) Dramatic Arts

As I create this website, and look at photos past,  I am humbled by the experience of knowing these students  -these unique and creative individuals -  just for a little while on their voyage.  I hope the programming here has given them challenge, confidence, inspiration, and warm memories.  Even as I use this amazing technology,  I am also profoundly  aware of the increasing need for arts programming, in a technological world where students spend much of their time negotiating with a screen.  In dramatic arts education, students explore, express, imagine, negotiate, collaborate and interact face to face, in real time... You might give it a try...
