Arts Education Matters Grant Administrators at Woodson

The Arts Education Matters grant administrators were special guests at Woodson K-8 on September 21, 2009. Mrs. Whitley and Mr. Polidore welcomed HISD’s Fine Arts Manager Vivian Fridley-Hereford, Diane Austin (Grant Manager), and Dr. Cindy Herbert, External Auditor/Evaluator on the campus. Dr. Herbert said this is the final year of the grant which assisted teachers and school administrators in exposing the fine arts in their respective schools over the past few years.

Over the past four years, the program introduced students to Theater, Music, Fine Arts and Dance activities at Woodson K-8 and other HISD schools that were supported by the grant. HISD will supervise a similar program the next few years in the district.
