We are proud to be the voices of the Las Vegas Academy, and ecstatic about the work we are doing in the community.
We have a program where all students interested in leadership positions in the top two choral ensembles must organize and complete a service project. This could be in service to the choir department, LVA or the community at large. It is inspiring to see what these students were able to accomplish in a very short time.
