Integrated Arts Projects are recurring programs in all grade levels (K-12) which share a common mission: to align arts education across all academic disciplines to enhance students’ creative and innovative thinking.
Educator Project Grants provide educators with funding to design and implement arts-based learning projects that fulfill curriculum goals in collaboration with pARTners-approved artists.
Local artists share their knowledge and guide students through the creative process in every project. Jackson has such a vibrant arts community, students learn first-hand from highly trained and successful artists.
The pARTners program is a formal school and community partnership, established in 1995. pARTners’ approach is teacher-directed and explicitly aligned to school district goals, priorities, and standards. pARTners maintains ongoing communications and planning between the arts and school communities.
pARTners has the capacity to serve all schools in Teton County, with TCSD#1 being their main “partner” since 1994.
“We are grateful to our friends, donors, teachers and artists who have supported pARTners over the last 30 years,” says Ruth Moran, pARTners Executive Director. “We witness first-hand the arts’ effect on students’ education, confidence, communication and self-expression. pARTners is excited to continue to expand and collaborate, creating a stronger program for the next 30 years.”
Your commitment to arts education makes a real difference in the lives of our children.
pARTners ignites creative thinking and self-expression in students by integrating the ARTS into Teton County K-12 curriculum.
Inspiring a creative passion for the ARTS through education.
