There has never been anything more Important to me in my life than Theatre and since I was young I wanted to start my own theatre. Then I got to college and I went to work in theatre but there wasn't much I could do where I could still go to school and be a professional. I now have the opportunity to start my own Production company but since there is nothing more important than a college education my main focus will be college students and professional actor who can achieve college credit well doing something they love.

 

Education through the arts is not something new but its something going away real quick and I want to stop it before it goes away forever here are some basic facts about people who participate in the the arts:

 

* Students who study art are 4 times more likely to be recognized for academic achievement and 3 times more likely to be awarded for school attendance.

 

* Arts and music education programs are mandatory in countries that rank consistently among the highest for math and science test scores, like Japan, Hungary, and the Netherlands.

 

*The No Child Left Behind Act clearly mandates The Arts (music, art, foreign language, etc.) as a core academic subject.

 

*Federal funding for the arts and humanities rolls in around $250 million a year, while the National Science Foundation is funded around the $5 billion mark.

 

*Researchers find that sustained learning in music and theatre correlates strongly with higher achievement in both math and reading

 

*In a study of a high-poverty schools in Chicago, the schools that were participating in the Chicago Arts Partnerships in Education (CAPE) made huge strides in closing the gap between high- and low-income students’ academic achievement.  

 

Those are only a few of the facts the list goes on and on. So if you can help me achieve my goals to help student achieve there goals. We can have a brighter future for all.
