Due to changes made to the networks, Gainesville and Colgan's Mac labs are rendered useless. Students can no longer sign in with their domain credentials and no one has solutions. We've been dealing with this issue for two months.

Concern About How Many Students are currently enrolled in Visual Arts Classes

# data[].attributes.body
Seeing that students have so many options, there is a growing fear that the arts will not maintain its importance. Which will of course affect funding for art teachers and their programs.

Restrictions (such as not being able to air drop) hamper the ability to effectively teach/create use our technology to the best possible outcome.

More support at the middle school level to support students wanting to apply to Colgan HS Visual Arts Program. Equity is a concern.

Supportive Admin and support with budgeting needs

# data[].attributes.body
An additional art teacher would be useful and would allow for more extensive and relevant artwork on the middle school level which may prepare students more effectively to apply to schools like Colgan or other specialty programs that focus on Visual Arts career paths.

# data[].attributes.body
Concern over class sizes. Who is repeating art and when and how often. Building upon content throughout grade levels when not everyone has taken the course. (Ex. 8th grade students first time ever being in art class during middle school career)

# data[].attributes.body
Wanting to utilize software programs at middle level but lacking technology and course training of utilizing on that level.

I would love to borrow this idea from my colleague who discussed this topic but if I chose to put this type of program in place I would be required to work with these students at the beginning of the day which would leave no time in my schedule for planning/preparation. Our students with disabilities normally attend Encore classes with general education students with a teacher's aid. Normally the student does not participate in art at all. I believe there is an Adaptive PE class at the school.

Those in charge of schedules do not take the recommendations seriously therefore, it has causes uneven class sizes, or students in higher levels that should not be there causing reteaching to happen when it shouldn't

# data[].attributes.body
Lack of consistency in grading, recommendations, over all student expectations, and what is expected of us as a teacher and team player causes there to be blurred lines in what is expected from everyone.

Getting those on board with expanding their knowledge in the programs we have to offer and what is expected from each one could help grow the program and get communities involved as well.

Lack of funds = not so hot materials = a lack of desire to be in art. Once heard a student say they would rather do their project at home because our supplies is cheap.

Offering Theatre in middle school is a strength. While we might not have it at every school, we are getting more theatre teachers in middle school, which is always a good thing.

# data[].attributes.body
The last few offerings for theatre PD (Paige Hernandez, Imagination Stage, and the mask work offered by Colgan teachers) have been engaging and eye opening. I would like more!

MS Drama as  Performing Arts instead of Encore

# data[].attributes.body
In many middle schools, Drama is a part of the Encore rotation instead of the Performing Arts block, with music. I think we are missing an opportunity to run MS theatre arts programs like music- Performances twice a year from each grade level.

# data[].attributes.body
The class sizes make it difficult to teach all the things required to make theatre successful. With today's youth needing the kind of communication and collaboration skills that theatre programs offer, Theatre teachers would be more effective if class sizes were closer to that of core classes.

# data[].attributes.body
County wide subscriptions to programs like QLAB and useful film editing software would be good opportunities for theatre classes at all grade levels.

# data[].attributes.body
Admin is very supportive and our art department has grown over the last several years and our funding reflects that.

# data[].attributes.body
Even though our school has several art teachers our class sizes are large. There are also times where we will have one small class and one 32+ size class of the same grade level. It would be nice if it could be balanced.

# data[].attributes.body
Depending on a students schedule they may have art 2-3 times in the same school year. Sometimes even with the same teacher. Even with a different teacher we are still teaching the same standards etc.
