Abstract

The purpose of this ORCA project was to give students in a local low-income elementary school the opportunity to experience a quality and interdisciplinary art education program for six weeks. Through the McKay School of Education, I was able to organize my elementary school student teaching at Provost Elementary as their sole art teacher. ORCA grant funds were used to purchase art materials that were donated to the school at the conclusion of the project.
