School & District Services
Professional development, grant writing, and program design for arts, entertainment & design CTE programs.
We handle the funding, the training, and the reporting.
A specialist in arts programs and grant reporting works alongside your team, writes the application, trains your staff, and prepares and files the reports. Our partnership with Study Smart, who have secured more than $500M in education grants, ensures that your program gets funded.
Three types of support, one partner.
Professional Development & Training
Your teachers and staff are trained and supported by industry experts. Sessions run on your PD calendar.
Industry-Taught Sessions
Working producers, editors, and designers lead the training, using the same software. Sessions are customized according to your needs.
On-Site or Virtual Delivery
Training runs at your site or online, scheduled on the PD days already on your calendar.
Compliance and Documentation
We track attendance, hours, and completion for every session. The records match what districts file for PD requirements and what funders ask for in reporting.
Grant Writing and Reporting
Funding the program is part of the program. With Study Smart, we provide support from eligibility through the final report.
Grant Eligibility Review
We check criteria, deadlines, and match requirements against the program you want to run.
Application Narrative and Budget
We write the narrative and align the budget to the funder's categories and your program costs.
Post-Award Reporting
We track what the grant requires and prepare the reports on the funder's schedule. Your staff reviews and signs off at every step.
Program & Curriculum Design
You have a pathway idea and need it built. We work alongside you to design the sequence, the projects, and the assessment against the standards you report on.
Course Sequence and Scope
We map the courses, units, and hours across the grades you serve. The sequence is built to your bell schedule and your pathway requirements.
Industry-Aligned Projects and Assessment
