At Battle Academy in Southside Chattanooga, teaching artists in our community have enhanced learning in the classroom for kindergarten and first grade.
Musicians Rick Rushing and Staci Spring are the teaching artists who have partnered with the magnet school.
They are with the Arts-Based Collaborative on our campus, the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga - abc@utc - and they have worked with Battle Academy teachers Dottie Love and Brooke Snyder.
