Learn more about how this dynamic new program, www.EdExploreSRQ.com, came about.
EdExploreSRQ.com was born in January 2010 out of a partnership among the Sarasota County School District, Arts and Cultural Alliance of Sarasota County, Science and Environment Council of Sarasota County, Education Foundation of Sarasota County and The Patterson Foundation. EdExploreSRQ.com was launched in August of 2011. The goal of the initiative is to improve connections between the classroom and community assets that better support Common Core and Next Generation Standards. To date, 36 organizations (with participation by 25 teaching artists) posted 160 explorations that have been vetted by the District curriculum leaders and linked to standards.
