My husband and I both work for organizations that support arts education in schools.
When it came time for our son to go to school, we wanted be a part of a community that shared our commitment to making creativity and dance, music, theatre and the visual arts a part of the teaching and learning for their students. So we moved to Culver City.
Because CCUSD is a district that supports teacher professional development in the arts, a district intertwined with their community arts organizations and a district with a support system like the Culver City Education Foundation, choosing where to move was easy.
Thanks to funds raised during last year’s All for 1 campaign, the Education Foundation provided musical instruments as well as support for technology and academic software to every school in the district.
This year, the funds from the All for 1 campaign will be directed to science, technology, arts and math, deepening and sustaining the School District’s excellent, diverse and challenging educational programs.
Because the Education Foundation supports a quality education for all students, I support them.
I made a contribution online through the Foundation’s website ccef90230.org/donate. Won’t you?
