The performance period is from October 1, 2024, to September 30, 2025. The AHEP grant targets a diverse range of beneficiaries, including students in grades pre-K to 12, older adults aged 50 and up, and teachers, educational staff, and teaching artists from DC Public Schools (DCPS) and DC Public Charter Schools (DCPCS). The primary impact goals are to provide access to high-quality arts and humanities experiences that advance student academic achievement, strengthen the value of arts and humanities education, and support activities consistent with local and national learning standards. The program prioritizes various project types, including In-School Projects, Out-of-School-Time Projects, Professional Development Projects, and Older Adult Projects. The focus is on delivering exemplary programs that align with current state standards in non-arts content areas where appropriate. This strategic approach ensures comprehensive engagement across different age groups and educational settings within the District. Expected outcomes include enhanced student academic performance, increased appreciation for arts and humanities, and improved professional development for educators and teaching artists.
