The jazz band is a smaller program that does not compete, but performs at school assemblies with the Latin Dance team, and with the local elementary schools' (Meadowland Elementary and Sugarland Elementary) Latin percussion students.
Global Ambassadors
In 2009 a group students, inspired by a trans-formative experience from a trip to India, created the Global Ambassadors Club. The club's mission is to expand the global perspectives of the student body through service initiatives, international exchanges, and hosting an international summit.
Service initiatives led by the club have included benefit concerts to support Save Darfur and El Refugio (a children's home in Costa Rica), various fundraisers to fund a playground for Saharsa Deepika (a children's home and school in India), a change drive to raise funds for International Justice Mission (a human rights agency dedicated to ending modern day slavery), a canned food drive to support needy families in the community, and a drive to collect items of need for the Loudoun Transitional Housing Program.
In 2011-2012 the club engaged the student body in an online voting and texting campaign to secure $10,000 in funding through the Pepsi Refresh Project to support the first ever Dominion International Youth Leadership Summit. The summit, which also received funding from the Loudoun Education Foundation and One Loudoun, brought student delegations from six countries (China, Germany, Lebanon, Singapore, South Africa, and South Korea) for ten days to explore global issues alongside the Dominion student body.
In 2012-2013 the summit was expanded to the Loudoun International Youth Leadership Summit, with neighboring Park View High School also hosting a school from Costa Rica.
