Ranger Good Works and Young At Art Museum
May 8, 2025
Ranger Good Works and Young At Art Museum have a 12-year partnership and together are a driving force for arts-based learning in Dillard Elementary and North Fork Elementary.
Each year, new theme-based learning programs that align with the Broward County School System are created through this partnership. This partnership includes a focus on world-famous artists, such as Romero Brito, and allows students to express their creativity through their interpretation of the artists’ work.
The art program, its management, oversight, development, preparation, delivery, and documentation are developed through the Young At Art Museum leadership team. The program is approved and funded by Ranger Good Works, including materials, costs, and field trips. The art program also includes a Year-End Art Exhibition and Showcase for parents and teachers.
Student school attendance is higher than before the program existed. School children love to use this opportunity to stimulate their intellectual and emotional needs in a fun and interactive environment.
Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science Field Trip
In February 2025, science lessons were brought to life for Dillard Elementary students in K-5th grade when they visited the Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science. All students in grades K-5th had the opportunity to explore the world of science at the museum. The field trip was strategically planned so that there was a direct alignment to grade level instructional focus frameworks to provide real world applications and extensions of learning beyond the classroom.
Students deepened their knowledge of science through exploring exhibits, visiting the aquarium, and participating in hands-on learning labs. The Frost Planetarium exhibit was a mesmerizing experience for scholars as they journeyed to outer space, dove into the ocean to explore coral reefs, and traveled through the human body.
We are thankful to the donors and partners who support science education!
Read for the Record at Dillard Elementary, October 2024
Dillard Elementary School participated in the world’s largest shared reading experience, the 19th Annual Read for the Record 2024 event, organized by Jumpstart.
Over 30 guest readers celebrated literacy by reading the book “Piper Chen” by Phillipa Soo and Maris Pasquale Doran. This experience was enjoyed by students in Pre-K though 5th grade as every class had the pleasure of hosting a reader. Interactive reading, book discussions, and props prompted reading for fun!
Thank you to the guest readers and volunteers who support the mission of Dillard. Elementary to increase literacy skills and English Language Arts achievement in all students.
