(for arts education), provided the program or purchase in question is “supplemental” and is demonstrably focused on addressing the school’s particular academic needs.” A letter from Arne Duncan, the Secretary of Education, August 2009, to School and Education Community Leaders on the topic of what funds to use for the arts: “At this time when you are making critical and far-reaching budget and program decisions for the upcoming school year, I write to bring to your attention the importance of the arts as a core academic subject and part of a complete education for all students. The Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) defines the arts as a core subject, and the arts play a significant role in children's development and learning process. Under ESEA, states and local school districts have the flexibility to support the arts. Title I, Part A of ESEA funds arts education to improve the achievement of disadvantaged students. Funds under Title II of ESEA can be used for professional development of arts teachers as well as for strategic partnerships with cultural, arts, and other nonprofit organizations. In addition, the Department's Arts in Education program supports grants for model program development and dissemination and for Professional Development for arts educators. Moreover, local school districts can use funds under the state fiscal Stabilization fund through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act for the arts along with other district expenses.” Photo above: Joshua Sy A Professional Development Session at Western Ave. EL Please stay tuned for any other field trips this year.

Standards based curriculum & after school K-12 Education Programs - School Performances - Workshops for Students, curriculum & after school - Professional Staff Development for Teachers Photo: Alfred Desio. Louise and students from Grant Elementary School in an after school program. Our K-12 programs are designed to meet California State Learning Standards. You can skip directly to the areas above or link to the residency packages we developed as an Arts Community Partnership member (ACPN). The fees listed are for Los Angeles USD schools only. The Children’s Creative Project for Santa Barbara, Ventura, and San Luis Obispo are in their catalog. Please contact us for others. From the day our company was founded, we have delivered on a commitment to provide world-class educational programming to children, teachers and working professionals. We are a current member of: The Arts Community Partnership Network of the Los Angeles Unified School District (acpn 09-10.pdf) The Los Angeles Arts Consortium (also on the Steering Committee) The Children’s Creative Project Arts Catalog for the Santa Barbara Arts Education Office The LA County Arts Education Resource Directory (Arts for All), including 10 vetted programs for students and 2 new ones for Professional Development: DANCE! with LA Choreographers & Dancers The Patchwork Girl of Oz with LA Choreographers & Dancers ONTO THE STAGE with LA Choreographers & Dancers DANCING YOUR NAME with LA Choreographers & Dancers MIX AND MATCH! with THE PATCHWORK GIRL OF OZ DANCE! with LA Choreographers & Dancers (6-8) DANCE! with LA Choreographers & Dancers (9-12) DANCING YOUR NAME with LA Choreographers & Dancers (9-12) ONTO THE STAGE with LA Choreographers & Dancers (6-8) ONTO THE STAGE with LA Choreographers & Dancers (9-12) LA Choreographers & Dancers USING SPECIFIC CULTURAL DANCE, a Staff Development Workshop, or Series as a Teacher/Teaching Artist Collaboration with Louise Reichlin & Dancers LA Choreographers & Dancers CREATING A DANCE, a Staff Development Training Workshop from Louise Reichlin & Dancers Special Notes for Educators:  Due to changes in the LAUSD’s arts budget (currently reduced to 0 for outside professional providers), our ACPN programs are now available only through other funds but still through our master contract and PO’s. Our Professional Development packages that previously were funded from SB1131 will probably need different funding sources. We currently have matching funds from the LA County Don Knabe Educational Partnership Grant, so please contact us if your school is in County District 4. All of our programs tie into the CA state standards and the ‘No Child Left Behind’ federal standards and do qualify for Title I funds if your school has them.
