Arts in Education

Request Forms

Schools are responsible to make all reservations and arrangements prior to submitting requests for Arts in Education (AIE) and Exploratory Enrichment (EE). Erie 1 BOCES oversees and prepares the contracts and payments only. This process can take 6-8 weeks in some cases, so you must fill out this form well ahead of the program date.

Request Form Requirements:

• All requests must have a clear connection to the arts standards (AIE ) or content standards (EE )
• For student experiences,  all requests must show evidence of direct and clear impacts on student learning (AIE & EE )
• For staff development, all requests must have a direct and clear impact on teacher learning (AIE ). Exploratory Enrichment (EE ) does NOT support staff development.
• Arts in Education (AIE ) requests may support both school day and after school activities. Exploratory Enrichment (EE ) may only support school day.
• Program requests cannot include food, travel, or lodging (AIE & EE)
• Consultants are allowed to have contact with students only when a district employee is present. Your submission of this form indicates that your school personnel understand this and that consultants in your school will not be asked to violate this rule.

Cancellations: It is the responsibility of the school to contact Erie 1 BOCES Arts in Ed ASAP if the program does not take place. Erie 1 BOCES will pay an artist or vendor unless we hear otherwise from the school that the program/event was cancelled or rescheduled.
