The culmination of this year’s Composer in Residence program took to the stage in February as students performed their commissioned piece at the annual String Thing concert. “This performance showcased the true progression from beginner- to advanced-student musicians, demonstrating the growth and development achieved through the program – and will hopefully continue to fuel interest and student enthusiasm around understanding music, performance and the creative process,” Marble said.
Por cada niño inscrito en un programa extraescolar en Utah, 8 más están en lista de espera para conseguir un lugar, lo que refuerza la realidad de la demanda insatisfecha en todo el estado. Afortunadamente, en el Distrito Escolar de Park City la historia es diferente. "Nos complace informar de que actualmente no tenemos ningún estudiante en lista de espera", nos dijo Klarich. Ha seguido formando el equipo del programa Extraescolar contratando personal adicional para abordar y adaptar la creciente demanda. La meta del distrito es poder ofrecer un espacio en el programa Extraescolar a cualquier estudiante/ familia de kínder a 9no grado de la comunidad que desee participar.
For every child enrolled in an afterschool program in Utah, 8 more are on the waitlist for a spot, reinforcing the reality of unmet demand throughout the state. Fortunately, within the Park City School District, it’s a different story. “We’re happy to report we currently have zero students on the waitlist,” Todd Klarich, PCSD’s Community Education Director, told us. He has continued to build the Afterschool team by hiring additional staff to address and accommodate surging demand. The district’s goal is to be able to provide a space in Afterschool for any K-9 student/family within the community who wants to participate.
To me, PCEF is supporting not only our school district but our whole community, by providing funding and amazing education opportunities that would not be possible otherwise. It takes a community to raise a child, and the Foundation is a critical component.
