The Arts Access Initiative is Houston’s action plan for ensuring equitable arts access for every K- 8 Houston Independent School District student. We work with Houston ISD leaders, city officials, arts and cultural organizations, higher education leaders, businesses, philanthropic community, principals, teachers, parents and students to advance student arts access through partnerships, data collection, advocacy and strategy.

 

Lamar Fleming Middle School is excited to be chosen as 1 of 3 HISD Middle Schools to participate in this Houston initiative. Thanks to Young Audiences of Houston, Houston Independent School District, Arts Organizations, the community, and the AAI as a whole, hundreds of scholars are exposed to different areas of the arts. As we transition to a Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math (STEAM) campus, it is imperative and necessary that every child has access to the arts, which will give them the opportunity to participate in project based learning.
