School Hip Hop Workshop
School professionals have commented on how all encompassing this experience has been for their students’ academic, physical, social and emotional well-being. Every student is engaged and focused including those who have challenges in their academic and social school life.
These students’ enthusiasm and full participation have allowed their teachers to see them in a new light: that these same students can focus, complete a project, and experience success.
Research shows that more instances of experiencing success is highly correlated to an individual’s optimism and resilience. Teachers report that they use ideas from A Star Society instruction to recreate this full participation and enthusiasm for their other academic subjects.
At the end of 5 days of instruction per grouping, students are able to perform and excite an audience with their newfound skills. This brings together the whole community of parents, teachers, administration, staff and classmates. Everyone is inspired and motivated by this culminating experience.
