THE KENNEDY CENTER PARTNERS IN EDUCATION
Deer Isle-Stonington Schools: launching lifelong learners and responsible citizens able to keep our island vital.
Join us for our third season of professional development events! Opera House Arts and the Deer Isle-Stonington school district were proud to have been named, in 2007, one of 14 new national partners--the only ones in Maine. We know that teachers are dynamic figures in students' experiences in school. Their influence on learning and attitutes is profound. Our partnership is devoted to building on our area's unique creative heritage by using teaching artists to help teachers: enhancing professional opportunities to assist teachers in understanding the beauty, depth, and range of the arts; and to integrate artistic skills and practices into the curriculum; thereby working toward a model for the sustainability of small, rural schools.
