Bob Baker Marionette Theater (BBMT) will offer 23 low- and no-cost field trips for Title I schools in the California Healthy Places Index’s lower quartiles, pairing our marionette performances with a post-show social-emotional workshop facilitated by BBMT’s puppeteers. Workshops align with California T-SEL Competencies and extend into the classroom through an existing CAC-supported standards-aligned K–5 take-home curriculum. CAC funds will sustain the subsidized field trip program for majority Title I schools by providing 20 field trips ($10 subsidy per child @80 children each), broaden reach by adding three fully subsidized trips ($25 per child) with dedicated outreach and coordination in identified HPI Q1 service gaps, and improve its quality by investing $2,500 in professional development to advance our puppeteers as teaching artists, and $373 to design and implement an observation rubric to evaluate student learning.
