Art Teachers – Teaching Artists – Arts Educators
“Over the last few years, you’ve probably heard business leaders talking about the importance of STEM—Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics—education. Now, with designers earning as much respect as coders, people are talking about STEAM, where the “A” stands for Art.
Teachers’ requests on DonorsChoose.org reflect this new emphasis on fostering creativity. From 2011-2012, art projects grew twice as quickly as projects in other subject areas. This growth reflects donor interest as well as teacher demand: Over that same timeframe, 72% of all arts projects on our site were fully funded, while the funding rate in other subject areas was 67%.” -Charles Best, CEO DonorsChose
