What problem would you like to solve?
Art Education/performing
Why is it important to solve? Why is it relevant for the community?
It is important for our children/students to have a place in their own Community, where they can thrive and go on to do beautiful things. In many predominantly black and brown Community's we lack funding to bring programs for the arts in schools.They focus more on core education, often believing it is not important to focus on art education. Many students in our Community aspire to sing, dance , draw/paint and want to go on to schools such as LaGuardia high school ,Highs schools of the preforming arts etc. But we don't have the resources, so many families go outside the district to enroll children in other districts that have programs we lack Dropping the enroll rates.
What idea do you have to address the problem?
We bring more programs for the arts, teachers/coaches ,equipment
Who would that help?
Students who are enrolled in our school , incoming students, Community, parents
What neighborhood would benefit from your idea?
East Flatbush, Flatbush
