TESTIMONIALS

Here’s what educators are saying about Arkansas A+

“I had high expectations for Arkansas A+ and they exceeded it in every way! We created, imagined, laughed, and connected during the week. This experience brought our staff closer as a team and sparked an eagerness to incorporate the arts in our daily instruction to improve engagement and enthusiasm for learning. Thank you for this life-transforming educational opportunity!”

Valerie Partain, Guy-Perkins Elementary School Dyslexia Interventionist

“We had an amazing week. Our teachers painted, sculpted, built, drew, sang, acted and danced. We all learned new ways to reach our students based on multiple learning pathways and a more hands-on approach. The teachers’ feedback to the A+ team and to me was nothing short of exemplary. The teachers all spoke of a renewed spark and are genuinely excited to get started.”

Susan McKinney, Guy-Perkins School District K-12 Principal for Teaching and Learning

A+ offers support and hands-on experiential learning that brought smiles and laughter to me everyday. I can’t wait to incorporate what they taught me in my classroom because I want to see the same expressions on my student’s faces while learning.
