ArtsSmarts at Caslan School

15 Jan 2007

The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of the ArtsSmarts program at Caslan School. In September 2003, Caslan received a $317,000 grant for a three-year initiative to infuse the core curriculum with arts in order to achieve five specific objectives. These were: to improve student achievement, attendance and behaviour, change teacher practice, and to increase parent and community involvement by incorporating Métis arts and culture into the curriculum and life of the school.
