APPLICATION REQUIREMENTS

The application process is meant to challenge you to reflect on what draws you to the program. Please allow yourself time to thoughtfully and thoroughly complete your application. Only complete applications, with all required sections, are considered eligible.

There are four parts to this application:

1. Student Self Reflection

2. Arts and Leadership Experience Survey

3. Artistic Self-Expression (ex. Digital copy of a visual artwork, Audio Recording of a musical composition or performance, Video Recording of dance performance or dramatic monologue)* It should be something that represents your interest and self-expression through the arts.

This portion should be uploaded to this form or emailed to CreativeAction@spsd.sk.ca. Ensure that the student name and contact information is included in your email. If you feel that there is another format for an artistic submission, please email CreativeAction@spsd.sk.ca for clarification.

4. Referral

The referral should be completed by a teacher that the applicant currently has (Grade 7 teacher, Arts Ed Teacher, Principal, etc.)

If desired, an applicant can submit a second referral from a private instructor or community member.

Ideally, references have known the applicant for 2 years, and can confidently reflect on the applicants’ strengths and weaknesses. The reference should not be a family member of the applicant.

ASSOCIATED COSTS

The cost to the student for this program will be a $100 student fee. Payment will be due when the student begins the program. Acceptance into this program is not based on the ability to pay. If cost is a barrier, we can address the issue if the application is successful. There may also be additional fundraising that will require student time only.
