Ingenuity and the CPS Department of Arts Education’s Back to School (B2S) event brings CPS teachers and arts partner organizations together to kick off the school year where we debut our new learning catalog, offering a range of development opportunities to enhance teaching practices and student engagement.

Throughout the event, which happens in August, we highlight key initiatives planned for the year ahead, fostering collaboration between educators and arts partners to align on shared learning goals. It’s a perfect opportunity to network with colleagues, celebrate new beginnings after the summer break, and lay the groundwork for a year filled with creativity and achievement.
