Wednesday February 22, 2017
1:30 - 2:30 PM
Grand Ballroom B

The Obama Administration created an impressive educational legacy, with a large focus on the arts. The Turnaround Arts session will demonstrate in action the arts education opportunities created by this Administration in the following ways:

  • Understanding the methodology by which Turnaround Arts achieves its academic and other outcomes at the National level as well as a closer look at our work in Chicago
  • Understanding of the ways in which local communities can leverage the new education legislation, ESSA, through the use of the arts in schools.

The panelists will share their different perspectives of Turnaround Arts and how to leverage Title 1 funding to support the Arts in schools.
