Abstract
Middle school arts programs play an important role in students' academic growth. Unfortunately for many middle schools, especially those in urban settings, the arts programs tend to be an ancillary and a minimal part of student education. This is especially true for current public schools facing budget cuts in tough economic times. This thesis examines how collaboration between the John B. Stetson Middle School in Philadelphia and a local community based organization, ASPIRA, in partnership with ArtsRising, revitalized and increased the importance of the school art department.
