Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of this project students grades three through grade twelve will have a variety of arts experiences and creative opportunities. These experiences will gives students the expertise of a professional artist to guide their creativity. Evaluation will occur through a questionnaire for students and teachers. This will include survey questions as well as comments. There will also be a discussion for those involved with the planning of the residency to discuss successes and needs. Attendance numbers at the public events will also be determined.

Measurable Outcome(s)

All students that participated in the residencies indicated they had a positive experience. Students grades three through high school had the opportunity to learn from professional artists. The questionnaires were completed. As the project director I also visited the site during the Heidi Jeub and Ross Sutter residencies and observed the excitement and participation of students. Conferences with other supervising teachers also took place. The residencies left a large impact on students.
