Purpose
The primary task of the Arts in Education Committee is to identify enrichment programs designed to enhance the educational experience of Garden City Students. Committee Chairs explore programs across the broad spectrum of the arts to identify those that also contain an educational value.
Exposure to the arts is valuable to learning since it stimulates creativity, curiosity, and awareness of the world around us.
Who
The committee recommends programs to district administrators that they believe will enhance the education of Garden City students. Past programs have included artist/writer workshops to musical, theatrical or dance productions, yoga, STEAM experiences.
