The Oakland Ensemble
(MLK Fest Literacy Ambassadors)

The Ensemble is comprised of students throughout the OUSD school district and is open to all students attending district schools from 3 -12 grade.  The main purpose of the group is to serve as MLK Fest literacy ambassadors for the annual oratorical fest within the district and community.  The group demonstrates all four elements of the oratorical fest: choral speaking; essays/famous speeches; original poetry; individual poetry.  The Ensemble conducts several assemblies and performances educating the student population and community about the importance of literacy. 

The Ensemble is an original group and is not affiliated or associated with any other group or organization.  They are also known as “The Ensemble”, “The Oakland Ensemble”, or “MLK Fest Literacy Ambassadors”.   
Join today and become an ambassador!
