Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

We would like to see more students enrolled at Les Jolies Petites. We would also like to see more students take leadership roles either in helping with choreography or student teaching.We will surveys for both the audience as well as students and parents. We also do audience interviews.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Every single student in Beginner Advanced class or higher expressed in the student survey that they wanted to take on a leadership role and help choreograph a piece. After seeing their peers' piece, they were all inspired to create.
