DocuSign Envelope ID: 542A38B8- 9740 -46EF- 9829- D336644631BB <br />Organization Carrboro Elementary School (CES) is a community -based Pre K -5th <br />Description grade school that has been serving students for over 50 years. The <br />school has an English- Spanish dual - language program, and uses <br />arts programming to enhance multicultural learning and to introduce <br />students to art forms and performance from around the world. <br />The arts are important to CES. All students attend art and music <br />once a week for 45 minutes each. In music, students sing, move, <br />listen, play instruments, and compose. Grade levels perform musical <br />selections in assemblies and at year -end performances. In art class, <br />students use paint, drawing materials, clay, fibers and mixed media <br />and study both artists and types of art. In our extra - curricular theater <br />program, students have created and produced full - length theatrical <br />productions for the past eight years, including "The Little Mermaid" in <br />2017, and an original production in 2018 called "A Night of Grimm and <br />Other Fairy Tales ", involving 150 student participants. The school <br />community provides impressive support every year, giving close to <br />$2,000 in donations and services toward the production. <br />Furthermore, our art /theater teacher runs a 24 -hour play festival for <br />5th graders and a popular summer musical theater camp. <br />Arts programming at CES enjoys broad support from the <br />administration, staff, families, and the PTA. The PTA works to ensure <br />that arts programming is funded; in 2017 they donated half of the <br />cost for new theater lights. PTA volunteers coordinate the school's <br />cultural arts performances and the Reflections Cultural Arts Contest. <br />During FY18 -19, will No <br />your organization <br />receive operational <br />support funding from <br />the North Carolina <br />Arts Council or the <br />North Carolina <br />Department of <br />Natural and Cultural <br />Resources? <br />Organization's EIN 566001004 <br />Organization http: / /ces.chccs.kl2.nc.us <br />Website <br />Authorizing Official's Ms. Jillian LaSerna <br />Name <br />Authorizing Official's Principal <br />Title <br />Authorizing Official's 919 - 968 -3652 <br />Phone <br />
