Description
I worked with Pacific Union School, a K-8 public school. The issue I addressed was a lack of art and craft opportunities in classrooms. I helped start an Art Club for all grades to be able to participate in during lunch recess. This work matters because art is important to help students build creativity and confidence. Not all kids have access to art supplies at home and rely on school to offer art opportunities. Many students sit alone during recess and offering art club lets them connect with peers while creating art. I have seen art club make a big impact. So many kids love participating. They have gained skills like learning to crochet, draw, paint, use clay, and much more. Through this experience I have gained skills in leadership, problem-solving, organizing, and classroom management.
