panel educators, consultants, and artists from their own and other
disciplines. The program is designed to encourage and ensure high
quality, in depth, curriculum based, integrated arts programs in Massachusetts schools.

Creative Teaching Partners List connects schools, cultural groups and
social service organizations with outstanding individual artists, arts
groups and folklorists from across the state. Partners are qualified to
conduct in-depth residencies, teacher professional development
workshops, school and district planning projects, and youth development
programs.

All
Partners are conversant in child development, state curriculum
frameworks and assessment, and have extensive experience in schools
and/or in after-school settings. They maintain active professional
careers both in their disciplines and in their educational work, and
