About the Grant
Involvement in the arts is associated with gains in math, reading, cognitive ability, critical thinking, and verbal skills. Arts learning can also improve motivation, concentration, confidence, and teamwork. Through Arts Education Access Funding, students in Seminole, Osceola and Lake counties hone those skills by attending field trips and participating in-school programs that connect to their class curriculum.
