Thanks to you our students now have access to more resources than ever before to grow their skills and push them farther in their careers. You can stay updated through our website, FacesofIDEAL, and social media to see all the amazing projects our students have and will continue to create.

AND CONGRATULATIONS to our raffle winners!!! You all deserve it:) ENJOY!

We will be going live either on September 31st or October 1st to see who won the raffle for the FREE 1-HR PHOTOSHOOT with the amazing APVisuals (hover over to check out his site)! Everyone who donates and/or shares is automatically entered into the raffle! Here is an image from his highlight reel:

HEY EVERYONE! Thank you so much for your continued support. We couldn't have gotten this far without your help. YOU ARE MAKING AN IMPACT. 

IDEAL is having a great semester so far and we're adjusting well to the online learning platform, here's a quick recap so far:

• We've started a cooking class on Tuesdays with the students and staff, one of our resident chefs is showcasing their skills via Zoom ????.

• We kicked off our apprenticeship programs - Art and Design, Acting, Creative Writing, and Music. The students are learning useful techniques and honing in on their skills.

• We were just recently interviewed for a segment on the Panther News Network, so be on the lookout for that! 

Finally, we're starting an IDEAL BLOG! The students will be posting regularly about their daily life, creative projects, and any other topic of their choosing. Click HERE to check out our website for more info!

THANK YOU AGAIN!!!
