Grant description
This grant will provide K–12 art educators with access to FLEX Curriculum from The Art of Education University as a supplemental resource to enhance our existing art curriculum. FLEX offers readily accessible artist biographies, art history, instructional resources, videos, demonstrations, and lesson ideas that teachers can adapt to meet the needs of their students. Access to these high-quality resources will increase teacher efficiency, support engaging and meaningful instruction, and help students make connections between their artwork, artists, cultures, and the broader world of art. A district-wide subscription will strengthen and enrich art education across all grade levels.
Campuses: Young Elementary, Rann Elementary, Carson Elementary, STEM Academy at Enis, McCarroll Middle School, Decatur High School
