This year, our school is our school district's first Arts Integrated School. We integrate all subject areas with the inclusion of art, dance, music and dramatic arts. To support our efforts, we would like to have an Art Lab. In the lab, teachers will have access to art supplies so they may work on a long term projects with their class in a space outside their regular classrooms. Research has shown that the arts are a strong lever in increasing student achievement. We’re in the process of setting up the existing space now. Any art supplies will be greatly appreciated. Please give our children the best art experiences possible, while giving your company the exposure it deserves for helping us out.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
