Only 18% of students in Portland Public elementary schools receive visual arts education. Only 58% receive music education. That is not enough!

Measure #26-146 has passed, but there is still work to do. Join me in supporting The Right Brain Initiative as they work with Portland Public Schools not just to create and fund art programs, but to integrate the arts into the everyday curriculum.

My name is Mary Evans. I am a senior at Portland Waldorf High School. One of the core values of Waldorf education is the integration of the arts into every aspect of learning. The arts have truly affected my life in many ways, and my dream is that one day my experience will be the norm for students everywhere.
