You can view the Scoring Rubric
here. Panelists review more than 100 applications, so please be specific to your school. Generic statements about arts access are hard to score.
To answer the question effectively, summarize by:
- Addressing Challenges: What specific gaps in arts education does your school face (for example, staffing, scheduling, funding, or which students have the least access)?
- Program Benefits: Why is this program the right fit for your students, and how does it connect to what’s happening at your school this year?
