Student Ambassador Leadership Program Guidelines
Ambassadors will serve an eight-month term, beginning in August and ending in March. A ‘welcome orientation and meeting’ will take place in the Spring.

be a Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, or Senior in High School for the Fall program sessions. (8th graders may apply in the spring, as they will be a freshman for the upcoming fall programs).

-
have better than average dancing and social skills.
-
have a pleasant and outgoing personality.

have a positive attitude
​
Each Ambassador is expected to:
-
Be a good role model at all times (in person and on social media) to others in: actions, words, deeds, and dress.
-
Attend 75% of the scheduled Ambassador meetings/activities. Three unexcused absences are grounds for removal from the program. Meetings (outside of program dates) will be tentatively scheduled once a month and shared early in the Spring. Most meetings will take place on Monday evenings at the Vega residence.
​
Compensation:
This program is part volunteer, part pay. Student Ambassadors will receive payment for successfully completing their ambassador duties of assisting and working with the 5th-8th grade program events.

-
There are Five ‘sessions’ plus one ball for each season/year = $180 for completion of all sessions.
