Arts4All Florida’s Student of the Month Recognition Program strives to increase public awareness of the impact arts make on students with disabilities. Students who participate in the arts develop creativity, have increased self-confidence, understand teamwork, have increased language and math skills, and are generally more engaged.
We invite you to recognize a student in one of two different age groups (5-13) or (14-22) who exemplify outstanding work in and through the arts. The student artist may be accomplished in visual arts, music, dance, drama, or literary arts, or just exemplify amazing personal achievement and leadership through one of the genres. Each month Arts4All Florida will select one student in each age category from a pool of students that have been nominated by administrators, educators, teaching artists, community members and parents. The winning students will be featured on the Arts4All Florida website and in our monthly e-newsletter. All winners will receive a personalized award presented at an awards ceremony of choice.
Criteria
To be nominated a student must meet the following criteria:
-
Be a student enrolled in a Florida public or private school. Home schooled students are definitely included!
-
Meet the age requirements for one of the two categories (ages 5-13 or 14-22).
-
Exhibit outstanding artistry, personal growth, increased self-confidence, or leadership through their work in the arts.
-
Be in good academic and behavioral standing.
Nominations will be accepted on a rolling basis throughout the school year. Winners will be selected beginning in September and will continue monthly through May of each year.
