Dramatic Arts
Lasalle Secondary School has a healthy dramatic arts program that not only offers 9-12 courses in Dramatic Arts but also an excellent extra-credit program for enrichment. The play production course offers students interested in acting and/or technical theatre . Through this full year course they take part in two productions as actors, lighting/sound technicians, visual artists and even stage management. In this credited enrichment program students can achieve 4M credits in their fourth year which can be used to apply to post secondary programs.
Music
LSS has a history of a very strong music program and has competed in many music competitions over the years. In 2024, our Jazz Ensemble was awarded Gold at MusicFest Canada; The Nationals, which is the highest honour an ensemble can receive! Students participate regularly in local festivals (Northern Ontario Music Festival and Sudbury Music Festival) and perform at a variety of concerts and school events throughout the school year.
