Parents of students in grades 3-6 participating in our spring theater class at the Elysian Charter School had this to say:
"My daughter comes home excited about creating, and seems more outgoing, and willing to learn."
"My child loves the whole idea of putting together an entire play, and she is getting better at showing self-confidence, and the ability to perform in front of others."
Students in grades 4-5 participating in our spring watercolors and acrylics class at Stanley Isaacs Neighborhood Center had this to say about their experience:
"Donelle was very supportive, I think she is a good teacher and she inspires me. The class was very exciting."
"My drawing and painting have improved, and I liked using my imagination. It was much better than art class in school. We liked using strawberries, doughnuts and potatoes to make art."
