What’s trending in Peoria Unified? Arts Education! Every spring, we honor the thousands of young artists throughout the Peoria Unified School District at our Annual Art’s & Cultural Festival in Old Town Peoria, Ariz. Like most events this year, COVID-19 changed the way we celebrate these students, but it did not impact how important this event is or take away from the importance of arts programming in our community. Through the years and many rounds of budget cuts, Peoria Unified has continued to take pride in and prioritize the importance of educating the whole child through the arts. In this episode we are joined by Director of Arts Education, Mr. Robert Panzer, and Rachel Scherrer from Country Meadows and Sun Valley as we discuss the impact arts make in a student's life.
