Deficit/Surplus In FY 2020-2021, the MES PTA had a budget surplus of approximately
$2,000, as a result of cov id precautions limiting PTA programming.
Additionally, CHCCS was completely v irtual as a district until the last
weeks of Spring 2021, when parents could opt into a hybrid model.
For FY 2021-2022, the MES PTA has a small projected budget deficit
as a result of applying last year's surplus to this year's programming
and ev ents to assist in the transition to fully in-person learning for
the majority of MES students. For FY 2022-2023, the MES PTA is
projecting a small budget surplus to allow for the flexibility to adjust
for anticipated inflation costs during that time frame.

Project/Program
Summary
The MES PTA Board and members, together with our principal and
teachers, hav e once again asked Mr. Shabazz to lead
his poetry residency to work with our fifth grade students. For
multiple years Mr. Shabazz has been getting MES students excited
about creativ e writing, encouraging them to be empowered by their
own words and expression. He is one of the most lov ed and
appreciated residents who has established lasting relationships with
MES teachers, staff, and students.
Currently, Mr. Shabazz is scheduled to teach the residency in person;
howev er, if necessary, Mr. Shabazz could again lead the residency
v irtually. Due to a rise in cov id cases in the school env ironment, for
the final few weeks of the 2021-2022 school year. masking once again
was required for all McDougle Elementary School staff, students, and
v isitors. Thankfully, Mr. Shabazz was able to present his poetry
workshop in-person while case numbers were low. Howev er, due to
the potential for additional cov id wav es, the ability for Mr. Shabazz to
present his workshop v irtually, if needed, was considered. In the
2020-2021 school year, Mr. Shabazz conducted his residency
v irtually, and was able to foster a creativ e and inclusiv e space for all
participants.

Project Goals The goal of the PTA Cultural Arts Program at McDougle Elementary
School (MES) has always been to expose the entire student
population to a wide range of artistic expression throughout their
elementary school years. MES students benefit greatly from the
shared experience of a div erse cultural arts program. Additionally, we
know that many MES students hav e v ery few opportunities to
participate in cultural arts programs outside of school, due to
socioeconomic realities and other family considerations. The
continuing Cov id pandemic has limited in-person access to cultural
arts experiences. The PTA Cultural Arts Program prov ides a
common context for students to understand and celebrate each
other’s differences, expand their knowledge about the world, and
make meaningful connections between the arts and the lessons they
are learning in the classroom.
It is unknown if the 2022-2023 school year will hav e guidelines
restricting large, indoor schoolwide gatherings. Consequently, for the
upcoming academic year, the MES PTA Board worked collaborativ ely
with the MES administration and teachers, and inv ited the poet Mr.
Shabazz back to MES to work with our 5th-graders. Mr. Shabazz's
poetry program has intentionally been included as an integral part of
the students’ curriculum. His work responds to the needs of all MES
5th-grade students. Mr. Shabazz’s work prov ides a strong
multidisciplinary linkage to the school’s curriculum (arts education,
language arts, social studies and positiv e behav ior) as well as
ongoing discussions of race, ethnicity, and culture both inside the
classroom and in our students’ communities outside of the school
building.
DocuSign Envelope ID: F87A8A83-5191-4D22-BCB0-5954909D7955
Cirruculum and
Enrichment
The MES PTA Cultural Arts Program supplements the school’s arts
education curriculum. Ev ery year, artists and programs are carefully
selected to match the themes and curricula being explored in the
grade-lev el classrooms. Teachers integrate the program into their
classroom experiences using the prov ided instructional materials
both before and after the program to enable deeper connections and
extended engagement with the ideas being presented. These
connections most often take place on a grade-wide scale, with
teachers of the same grade using the same lesson and specials
teachers prov iding further reinforcement during classes such as art,
music, and library.
Mr. Shabazz’s poetry residency will again become part of the
curriculum for our 5th grade students in the 2022-2023 school year.
Mr. Shabazz’s creativ e writing workshop "Liv ing W ords" has been
taught at ov er 400 schools, conferences, and community centers.
Mr. Shabazz designed his writing workshop activ ities to align with
Common Core standards. During the residency, the students will not
only be prov ided with poetry packets, but will also write and present
original poetry, and support and celebrate each other’s
achiev ements within this nurturing setting. Mr. Shabazz has
repeatedly receiv ed praise for his contributions to arts education as
his workshops blend imagination, experience, and an upbeat
sensitiv ity.
Audience Description The audience will be made up of approximately 83 fifth grade
students who represent a wide range of ethnic and socioeconomic
backgrounds. Below is our estimated breakdown of audience
numbers and demographics (based on the rising 5th grade class):
Female - 47 (56%)
Male - 36 (44%)
African-American - 13 (15.66%)
Asian/Asian American - 5(6.02%)
Caucasian - 49 (59.04%)
Hispanic/ Latino - 11 (13.25%)
Other (Multiracial) - 5 (6.02%)
In the 2021-2022 school year, CHCCS prov ided free lunch to all
students. W ithout this program, based on data from prev ious
academic years, approximately 33% of students would qualify for the
Free and Reduced Lunch Program.
Location Description The poetry residency will take place in the 5th grade classrooms. As
the students will be in a familiar setting, they will already hav e all
required accommodations (based on their specific IEPs and 504s) in
place at the time of the ev ent.

Artist Description The MES PTA Cultural Arts Committee collaborated with school
administrators, teachers, and MES PTA colleagues and identified that
the poetry residency with Mr. Shabazz for our 5 grade students will
continue to benefit our school community, as well as prov ide the
flexibility for any new restrictions or limitations that may arise as a
result of future cov id wav es. Mr. Shabazz's work is engaging and
easily adjustable to a v irtual env ironment if necessary. His methods
succeed in showing students how to use poetry as a tool of learning
and communication. His teaching style is fun and direct, and at MES,
we all believ e this cultural program will
hav e the highest impact to our students.

participants.

evaluate the success
of the program?

attendance and observ e the audience response during the week of
work. By the end of the week, ev ery student will present their poetry
work to the class showcasing their effort. Selected poems will be
shared (with student and parental approv al) with the MES community
on the PTA website. W e also request feedback from faculty and staff
