Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

90% of the 265 program participants will report an increased proficiency on their instrument, songwriting and performance skills. 85% of program participants will report an increased sense of self confidence, increased leadership skills and an increased ability to work collaboratively with others. A pre and post camp survey will be taken by program participants to measure all music knowledge, self-confidence and leadership skills gained by participants. Additionally, teaching artists will set learning goals for each instrument lesson and band rehearsal. They will indicate at the end of each camp day, via a teacher survey, if the students met the learning goals. This will help us measure if the participants are learning new instrument, songwriting and performance skills.

Measurable Outcome(s)

96% of campers reported that their instrument ability improved and 91% reported that their songwriting ability increased. We served 213 participants who formed 36 bands. The bands wrote and performed 60 original songs.
