CreatEd is built of the philosophy that literacy can be experienced through multi-modal possibilities and that the arts enhance education in meaningful and experiential ways. 

Research demonstrates that the arts provide rich benefits to students such as:

• supporting social-emotional learning 

• encouraging social emergence

• supporting a growth mindset 

• improving self-esteem and self-efficacy in students.

Artistic environments enhance the student experience and stretch possibilities in learning through:

•  alternative teaching methods

• supporting creativity

• providing cross-curricular opportunities for students.

This studio aims to offer programming that creates possibilities in education, providing authentic learning experiences through dramatic arts and play. Arts-based education has proven to be an effective method of teaching and learning, and provides students with the opportunity to learn in the ways that work best for them.
