As a result of this program, CEEF now funds 57 percent of the district's annual visual and performing arts budget. This has been our most successful program. We're going to make it a permanent program. Different schools have different wants, and this gives them flexibility. At Stocklmeir, the district's largest school with 710 children, the information literacy program has helped faculty obtain more computers for their computer lab.
Teachers sign up to use the lab mainly for social studies and science lessons.
Computers really engage kids who aren't engaged in other things. As part of its cultural arts program, Stocklmeir brought in local artist Marie Franklin to provide its students with expert instruction. CEEF board member Linda Hay speaks highly of the art programs that CEEF promotes. It gives them unique skills and confidence. Maintained by Boulevards New Media .
