Tools for Teachers Professional Development Program

Program description

We know it is essential to include resources for teachers in providing arts education opportunities that prepare our next generation for success in school, work, and life. We are proud to present our Professional Development series through our partnership with the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, focusing on standards-based arts integrated lessons that you can take immediately back to your classroom. CEUs are available for teachers for each workshop. In-person workshops are paired with classroom modeling opportunities in your own classroom.
