Home Instruction Schools is an interim program serving over 3000 students per year who receive instruction until they are ready to return to their school of affiliation. Art and music is
taught as a requirement for high school students. Art and music is also used for all of our Alternate Assessment students to develop gross and fine motor skills and is used to differentiate student learning. The arts program is also infused into the curriculum for elementary and middle school students to help enhance their learning in other academic areas

At our school the arts provides our students with opportunities to learn about music, visual arts, and film as forms of personal and cultural expression. Students work with classroom teachers to connect the arts to their core content classes, as well as to explore how they relate to career readiness. The arts provide access through Universal Design for Learning to enhance every opportunity to build students' advanced literacy skills. Our school has strong relationships with community organizations: Best Buddies, Lincoln Center, Marquis Studios, Safari East, illuminart, NYU, Metropolitan Museum of Art and more. Our school community also provides several arts related trips, which allows the school to collaborate with the community and effectively exposes students to the arts across disciplines. Although there was interference from Covid-19 for some our ability to go out into the community and experience live art performances, shows, and exhibits, we hope to continue our partnerships as we prepare for reentry. Our arts opportunities are provided across our middle school, high school, and transition center, which helps to support our vision of one.

Our goal as art educators is to provide a meaningful arts program to all students with disabilities. Following the NYCDOE Blueprint for Teaching, Learning in the Arts, and The National Core Arts Standards, we strive to expose our students to most, if not all the art forms. While working with a variety of cultural organizations, we are afforded the opportunity to introduce our students to museums, theaters, and concert hall performances. Additionally, members of the Public School 004Q arts team that remained art teachers in the 2020-2021 school year, attended professional development workshops, to continue to learn and provide our students with different opportunities to express their creativity through all artistic outlets.

At P 23Q we offer visual arts, theater, music, and digital media to our students in grades K-12. The arts are considered the universal language and we strive to integrate them in the curriculum providing opportunities for students to be actively engaged in their learning. During the school year we were invited once again to participate in the Broadway Bridges program. Through Broadway Bridges, the students saw Broadway shows at deeply discounted prices. This year the students were able to view the Broadway show MEMPHIS remotely. P23Q is also participating in a three-year pilot program in which NYCDOE partners with the National Theatre in London. We have access to filmed performances and an array of learning materials from teachers in the UK. We will be writing lesson/unit plans that reflect how we use the materials in our school, and these materials will be added to the National Theatre's resources. This year, P23Q students will be viewing/working with Brian Friel's Translations and wonder.land, a musical adaptation of Alice in Wonderland for the social media age. Students participated in Arts Connections “Flourish” contest. The artwork of three students were chosen to be displayed for one year at the Centerview Partners offices in NYC. Students participate in monthly assembly programs on various topics showcasing their talents in music, art, theater and dance. High School students earn credits in the arts that fulfill their high school credit requirements.

Students who attend P23 Q are admitted after all other options for school placement have been exhausted. We are the most restrictive placement within District 75, Citywide Programs. All our classrooms have a wide variety of instructional materials to accommodate the individual needs of each student. The arts play an integral part in learning with our students as the arts (music, art, dance, theatre), helps to build confidence, self-esteem and taps into their unseen potential.

P177Q has a rich arts culture embedded in the school. Our students have opportunities to engage with our school-wide curriculum through connected arts activities, residencies, and special programs such as band, dance team, wood shop, and drum line. This year, we partnered with teaching artists from NYC Children's Theater and Bridging Education and Art Together (BEAT) to further our students' arts education. We are hopeful that through future grant programs we will be able to continue these successful partnerships and build new ones.

We provide a varied arts program to a diverse population. Our goal is to enrich every student's school experience through the four major arts disciplines. We hope exposure to the arts will provide lifelong enjoyment and appreciation of our art institutions. We hope to incorporate art and academics in a way that will provide opportunities for students to become successful adults.

P233Q serves students with different disabilities in grades Kindergarten through twelve in District 75. This school year, social distancing guidelines and the requirement to wear masks affected the ability to have traditional band practice, dance classes and the theater program. To ensure the safety of staff and students; we did not use the auditorium this school year. The school goal was to guarantee that the arts was present in both instructional and social emotional learning experiences for both Blended and Remote students. Parents were a vital part of the arts experience for remote learners. Remote and Blended cohorts participated in the arts via virtual trips, Power of Choice activities, themed events, and culminating projects. The curriculum team created units of study that included teaching resources and virtual activities. Social emotional events (Power of Choice clubs)offered movies, music and art as activity options. The arts curriculum also included the use of technology and photography. Students participated in special curriculum activities(for Black History Month, Women in History Month, Earth day, Autism Awareness event and Respect for All Event) These events included the use of poetry, art, photography and/or music. Students also experienced a virtual graduation and created the school newspaper, which included music, art and/or photography. Additionally, the Title III Saturday program’s theme(an eighteen-week program) was multicultural music around the world.

Public School 255Q's arts program supports the school's focus of a multi-sensory approach to learning. Teachers of the arts provide instruction in their disciplines with emphasis on teaching targets related to developing skills. These teaching targets are developed through the use of school-wide assessments. Additionally, teachers of the arts, in collaboration with classroom teachers, select student IEP goals for which they collect data and monitor student progress thus supporting on-going collaboration. This process advances a collective responsibility for implementation of the IEP as a comprehensive plan.

P255Q is a District 75 school program that serves students with autism. We strongly believe that the arts are a meaningful vehicle for expression and value arts education for our unique learners.

The John F. Kennedy Jr. School provides services to approximately 480 students with a range of educational, social and physical needs. We have created a program which incorporates the arts in order to maximize our students’ progress towards independence, self-expression and productivity. Our program focuses on music, dance, visual arts and the performing arts. Our music program provides students with the opportunity to expand their musical abilities as well as their social skills. Students work collaboratively in a chorus, band or ensemble to focus on IEP goals as well as musical goals. Motor skills, movement and creative expression are the main focus of our dance program. We have visual arts and photography programs that allow our students to express themselves creatively in various mediums. Annual theater productions and performances give students the chance to demonstrate their theatrical talents and work on their communication skills. Lastly, we offer concerts and cultural events both during and after school hours that foster an appreciation of the arts for our students and their families.

The arts education program at Public School 811Q is multi-faceted. In multi-media classes, keeping in mind COVID-19 protocol and limitations, students participated in instruction that infused the arts (opportunities to express their learning through art projects, interpretive dance, and music). Students in all grades received visual arts instruction via in-person, remote, synchronous and/or asynchronous work. At the secondary level, students are engaged in visual arts classes using various forms of media and self-assessing their work against a set expectations to build independence and to self-advocate. In our Elementary programs, students are completing academic core assignments through music, dance, visual art as well as using online platforms to demonstrate their skills, build upon their peer to peer interactions and to also begin self-assessments. The arts have also been used to promote social emotional learning as our visual arts certified teachers have participated in over 40+ hours of PD regarding SEL and the ARTS. Our school has utilized and promoted the arts through various end of month celebrations including but not limited to Black History Month, Women's History Month and Autism Appreciation month where students across our 8 sites showcase their use of arts in instruction and have a chance to express themselves in the ways that meet their individual preferences and needs.

Alternate Assessment District 75 school serving students in Grade K-12+. Special Education teachers are needed to teach all the arts in order to best adapt work for our student. Our Assessment Ratios are 12:1:4, 6:1:1, 8:1:1, and 12:1:1 in Grades K-12+.

P993Q is a District 75 school which has 9 sites all over Queens, NY. Our students range from K through 12 grade.
This has been very challenging for both students and staff with the majority of both working remotely. Keeping everyone interested and attentive became a job in itself. Standard procedures were not available. Resident artists, field trips and performance were no longer tools for us. We looked towards The Guggenheim Museum and Arts Connection for help. The Guggenheim provided us with interactive tours of their museum which we were able to share with our J72, LICHS and FSSA sites. Arts Connection created 19 asynce videos of puppetry, musical theater, hip hop music, visual arts and dance. These videos were designated by grade level but were available to all teachers if they felt they were appropriate.
All in all the videos were well received. Teachers were encouraged to comment on all so that we could determine what worked and what didn't. This information will help us establish our goals for next year.

As our school name states, we are a school of the Arts. Our classroom teachers incorporate the arts into their curriculum and provide a multi-sensory approach to teaching our special needs students. This approach lends itself to using the arts as an important teaching tool. This year was challenging for a variety of obvious reasons. Our arts programming, both in the school building and remote residencies, continued to provide opportunities for our students to shine, by teaching them how to use their creativity and talents. We are fortunate to be a partnership school with Marquis Studios. Our students benefit each year from quality arts instruction. The residencies that our students have participated in, include music, visual arts and dance as well as theatre/movement and circus arts. Our staff and students have formed long-term relationships with many master teaching artists from Marquis Studios, who have provided opportunities for both students, through programming, and parents, through parent-child workshops, to embrace the arts and cultivate the talents of our students! Our school is also proud to be a TATI school. With financial and mentoring support from Marquis Studios, teaching artists from The Teaching Artist Training Institute (TATI) have the opportunity to come to our school to learn about effective methods of teaching students with disabilities. The Arts bring joy to our school community and nurture the talent that is inside of all of our students!

It remains our goal at PS373R to provide a comprehensive arts curriculum, aligned with the CCLS, the NYCDOE Blueprint for Teaching and Learning in the Arts and the Danielson Framework for Teaching. Through the arts, we seek to address the varied learning modalities of our special needs students, in both standardized and alternate assessment, while making powerful and deep interconnections across the content areas that build a strong academic foundation and support the students' attainment of their IEP goals. Recognizing the power of the arts to advance our students' emotional and social growth, as well as their academic growth, we continue to support Emotional Literacy in and through the various arts disciplines. To this end, we continuously strive to expand the reach of our programs, to partner with cultural organizations, and to elevate the rigor of our arts instruction through collaborative teaching, cohorts and professional development. With an increasingly aggressive approach to grant writing, we continually seek out resources and opportunities for our students, regardless of remote or in-person format. Through the arts, our children not only learn and grow, they flourish.

This year, we like all schools across our city faced the challenges of frequent classroom and building closures, students opting in, out and then back in to in-person learning, and a lack of personal arts supplies and materials to eliminate the possibility of cross-contamination in class or lack of supplies at home. Additionally, all of our art teachers at the elementary level were reassigned to teach core content primarily, with the arts as a secondary supplementary subject, due to a shortage of staffing both in person and remote. This reassignment was put into STARS in this way and caused our teachers to miss out on studio allocations that had been pulled in the Spring of 2020 and reinstated this year. Despite this, teachers continued to use the arts to teach the children Social Studies and Science, while addressing the content curriculum. Several grants were applied for which enabled the creation of individual portable art kits for home and school, which facilitated learning to an extent. Cultural partners delivered performances and instruction via ZOOM and Google Classroom, enabling students to participate whether at home or in school, and across our 8 co-locations. While virtual learning is not the preferred for our students, it did greatly expand the scope and reach of participation.

Our goal is to provide arts instruction that is appropriate, individualized and thoughtfully designed to address the strengths and needs of all students at P352X. The arts are an integral part of our instruction and are embedded within the curriculum across all subject areas. Teachers of the arts work with classroom teachers and related service providers to support students in improving literacy, socialization, and social emotional learning skills through real world collaborative experiences. Students participate in a wide range of authentic art experiences to broaden their understanding of various art forms and related careers. Students can be found creating original works of art, performing traditional song or dance, and experimenting with media to create an iMovie. To extend art education beyond the classroom, we take advantage of every opportunity to expose our students to the vast cultural resources that New York City has to offer and we value the partnerships we’ve formed with our community.

Based on IEP goals

Public School 10X services over 600 children with severe special needs. The arts program consists of two certified music teachers and nine school-based visual arts teachers in ten sites throughout the Bronx. Our overall school goal is to expose our children to the arts and provide multi-sensory experiences, project based learning opportunities, and planned situations for peer to peer interaction to improve communication skills, all done through content based instruction. We provide this through alignment with the NYCDOE Blueprint for Teaching and Learning in the Arts and Music, paired with individualized student communication and IEP goals. P10X has been a Partnership School with Marquis Studio for the past 18 years. P10X students receive 10 weeks of the arts resulting in a culminating performance such as: Circus Arts, Animation, Music through Storytelling, Percussion, and Visual Arts projects.

Although the 2020-21 school year will be remembered as the year of the pandemic, P17X strived to find innovative and nontraditional ways to remedy our restructured arts programming. Some art subjects were downsized as art teachers and art spaces were shifted due to COVID safety needs. However, our goals remained the same: to offer enriching and rigorous curriculum in visual arts, music, theatre and dance; arts experiences that bolsters early language and literacy acquisition, and encourages self-awareness, self-esteem and individuality, strong relationships with outstanding cultural organizations and residencies with adherence to the NYCDOE Blueprint for Teaching and Learning in the Arts. Towards that end, the arts expanded its use of technology and film, recording performances and creating Zoom art events. Students became empowered as well, using iPhones with iMovie to express their unique voices in the arts disciplines. While we are very proud of our students achievements in art competitions like PS Art, the Ezra Jack Keats Bookmaking Competition, All Kids Can Create National Exhibit, Illustrations in All You Can Be by former Yankee Curtis Granderson, and the performances at the Bronx Borough Arts Festival, this year's students' creation of a Public Service Announcements, and Autism self-advocate videos are memorable and noteworthy.

P17X serves students with disabilities and diverse learners, with an emphasis on connecting arts learning between our elementary sites and middle school. When developing exhibits and performances, our arts team strives to partner with our related service providers so that a common goal for our students is achievable. For example, when rehearsing a show with cultural partner Inside Broadway in our Black Box Theatre, you will often find a speech provider there with a script, or a physical therapist or occupational therapist dancing beside the student. We have seen a student that many thought was nonverbal singing solo onstage. We have seen phenomenal behavioral changes in students once considered aggressive. And we have had parents come up to us and thank us. That is the power of the arts. That is what P17X strives to do every year.

Public School 168X is a district 75 school serving standardized and alternate assessment students from Pre-K through high school at 7 in-person sites, and numerous remote classes. The Covid-19 pandemic had a large impact on our arts program as many arts teachers were asked to fill other roles. Teachers found creative ways to integrate the arts with core subjects, the new social-emotional initiatives, and lunch duty. Some of our arts teachers were able to return to teaching arts subjects in the second half of the year but that shift may not be reflected in STARS. It is our hope that all the arts teachers will be able to return to teaching their arts discipline full time in the new school year as all our students and staff return to in-person learning.

Public School 176X is a district 75 program serving students with Autism Spectrum Disorder and other special needs. Through the art forms such as music, modern dance, hip hop, yoga, STEM, ballet, musical theater, band, chorus and visual arts, students enhance their language, self-direction, social skills, reading and life skills as well as performance skills. Aside from projects based in literacy, the school has developed several performing arts groups such as a school chorus, keyboard, drum lines and a dance troupe. Public School 176X participates in District 75 arts events. Students participate in monthly assemblies during which they perform or attend performances that help facilitate a positive school culture for students, parents and staff. The arts provide a pathway to learning that connects the Common Core Learning Standards, the NYCDOE Blueprint for Teaching and Learning in the Arts as well as parent engagement. Now more than ever, it is critical to bring the arts to our community to support the social- emotional goals of our students and their families. It is our goal to facilitate healing from the trauma of the past year and a half through arts education, in-person and virtually.

Our art program continues to be robust Public School 188X integrates the arts into our curriculum in alignment with the NYCDOE Blueprint for Teaching and Learning in the Arts. We strive to meet the needs of our diverse student population. We have multiple art/literacy classes at one of our sites, and visual arts at three of our sites. These classes were provided both in person and remotely. Our in person students participated in dance/movement class as well as visual art. We continue to strive to meet the diverse needs of our students through the arts with the help of cultural programs, public performances and art exhibits. Once our school communities opened up again, we were able to host visual arts program via virtual instruction with the Arts Horizons Program and the Children's Museum of the Arts. P188X also held a virtual talent show where our students were able to display their various talents. Our students enjoy and excel in the arts. Public School 188x loves the arts and values integration in our curriculum and school community.

Over the past several years, P721X - The Stephen D McSweeney School has demonstrated an expanded commitment to the arts. We had teachers devoted to the following disciplines: Visual Arts, Theatre, Music, and Dance. Unfortunately, this school year due to the pandemic we had to reallocate several of our Art teachers back into special education self-contained homerooms. Our music teacher was the only one who continued to offer music to two classes and also coordinated a school wide virtual talent show. Our visual art teacher submitted artwork to several contests and one student's artwork is being exhibited in the Bronx Borough Arts Festival. We did try to offer some virtual opportunities to our remote and in-person students. We had a virtual interactive Dance demonstration from the Isadora Duncan Dance Foundation and the New Orleans Dream Concert from Jazz at Lincoln Center. Our after school programs also incorporated the arts including learning to draw a tulip and a monarch butterfly, African drumming, and flamenco dance. Our Arts teachers did attend city wide professional development this year and we look forward to restoring all our robust art programs and more during the 2021-2022 school year.

This school year we were unable to apply for the SWD grant due to budget constraints because we would need to provide 50% of the funding to secure a residency. With 11 sites in our organization funds are limited. Project Arts and Arts Counts funded art supplies to the 9 sites that participate in the arts. This year our school based teachers provided dance and visual arts to our students. Performances included dancing, singing, music and art work by our students.

Our arts program continued this past year in remote instruction. I have had varying success with remote instruction because there were some students who did not attend class. With that said, the students who did attend class did well! Students participated during lecture and gave thoughtful responses. Students analyzed and critiqued art work and also learned many art concepts along the way. We were able to take more time to discuss the art that I taught because we spent more time for instruction this year as opposed to spending more time doing studio work. It was nice whenever I worked with a group of students who enjoyed learning about art. The discussions were often lively and meaningful.
