Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Provide quality arts experiences for 2-12 students. Build new relationships by working with Community Education to remove cost and transportation barriers with underserved communities.Stories, video recordings, surveys, diversification of student participants and data collection such as increased participation in classes and increased contributed revenues will be tracked.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Overall, we did not have as much interest in the classes as we had hoped. However, 2nd to 4th grade classes were always full. Several signed up again after enjoying their first class. We did not have a large percentage of low-income or minority students enroll. The other goals were accomplished.
