Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
To increase the quantity and types of arts learning opportunities for youth.Observe projects that students have made. Have the students fill out a survey evaluating their art work using art criticism concepts. Find out if students liked the artist and her ideas she presented. Did participation in the program give students skills they will be able to transfer to other classroom projects.
Measurable Outcome(s)
32 mainstream teachers came to an in-service. 305 students met the artist in residence. 24 community members came that were not school members. I will have another art show during conferences so more parents can see the projects.
