Lawndale Elementary School District

P.S. ARTS moved into the heart of the South Bay in 2000.  In the 2004/2005 school year, the Herb Alpert Foundation made a generous $1.5M donation to fund a five-year initiative that allowed P.S. ARTS to expand programming and provide all 3,900 students in the district’s seven elementary schools with arts instruction.  In year five, The Herb Alpert Foundation extended their commitment with a promise to fund the project through its sixth year.  LESD’s administration and faculty appreciation and commitment to the P.S. ARTS program is clearly evident as the district makes a financial contribution to the program each year.  This year, LESD’s school participation fee is close to $125,000, making LESD one of P.S. ARTS’ top five funders.

Lennox School District

P.S. ARTS currently provides a traditional Orff-Schulwerk based music program for the Lennox School District after school program.  The after school program is free to the students in Lennox, and all Lennox students are welcome to attend.  P.S. ARTS is also participating on the Arts for All arts education planning committee in the Lennox school district.  Unlike the majority of schools in which we provide arts education during the school day, P.S. ARTS entered the school district as part of the after school program in accordance with the district-wide planning process.  P.S. ARTS anticipates expanding arts program into the school day as a part of the regular curriculum.
