Spring 2024 Hinesburg Community School

In the Spring Semester of 2024, the Olivia and Leslie Foundation will launch its visual arts education curriculum at Hinesburg Community School in Hinesburg, Vermont as part of the School’s after school program. This integrated Arts + Math curriculum is designed to foster creativity, problem solving and self-confidence in young students. At the core of our mission is the commitment to making high-quality arts education accessible to all children.

Thank you, Champlain Valley School District for your collaboration and commitment to your students.

“Our families are excited to have these opportunities for expanding the curriculum in a fun way — and one that also speaks to where our children are in learning and development.”

—Suzan Locke, principal of Hinesburg Community School

The initial curriculum was developed by leading arts educators and will continually evolve, based on analysis and research of its impact on students. The Foundation has partnered with Maker Prep, an organization devoted to supporting computer science and arts education.
