All Children need a creative outlet as a way of expression. Cutting this out of their week will be cutting out opportunities for the future.

You are talking about cutting $60K against a $38M budget. Really!

A full time art and music teacher at Hubbard Woods is a must. They are integral parts of our children's education and the school community. It would be extremely unfortunate for Hubbard Woods to lose these two amazing teachers.

Children learn through art, music and play. Prioritize these important subjects!

The music and arts programs at HWS should be left as they are. These programs are important for many kids who are not motivated by sports. These programs are part of what attracts families to move to Winnetka.

HWS should not be subjected to any less quality or quantity instruction then the other 2 elementary schools. The two teachers make our school unique and our extremely valuable to the culture and traditions of the school.

Each class has music and art once a week with a full time art and music teacher. I cannot see how students can have art and music once a week with reduced presence of our amazing teachers!

As a graduate of Hubbard Woods School and a teacher myself, I know that the music and arts programs are vital and not something to be shuffled to the sidelines because of budget. I hope that you will understand this and pay these teachers the respect and money they deserve for their hard work.

My daughter graduated from D36 last June and I can attest to the importance of art and music in our children's K-8 education. Keeping full time art & music teachers at Hubbard Woods is a must!

Music and Art are the highlights of our child's school week. The fact that Mr. Denien has 99% (if not 100%) participation in the 4th grade chorus speaks volumes about the community and enthusiasm he is building in these children's lives. Please keep the Art and Music teachers as full-time positions at Hubbard Woods.

Full-time, constitent, and committed teachers build a bond with children that promotes trust. When our children trust and respect their teachers they are able to do their best and reach success!

I strongly encourage the board to keep Music and Art as a core part of the full time faculty. Our children deserve that, and so do their teachers!
