Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Goals: Provide quality arts learning experiences to approximately 1000 Southeastern Minnesota students. Provide access to an array of professional artists that would be beyond the scope and reach of individual school districts. Quality outcomes will be measured by analyzing participant evaluation forms, interviews, and student work. Access outcomes will be evaluated by attendance and school participation spreadsheets.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Quality Goals: Participant evaluation forms and interviews indicated a high quality arts experience. Access goals: Participation data show a large number of small rural school districts were involved, with plans to increase their numbers next year.
