My 580 students are in grades k-4 through 5th grade and come from various parts of a large, mid-western city. Over half of them are on free and reduced-price lunch and the recent recession and unemployment has affected many of them. Our school offers education in the arts but budget cuts have resulted in a reduction of teacher time in those important areas. Our staff and parents are trying to maintain our arts mission with fewer resources.
