CAB CALLOWAY SCHOOL FUND WEBSITE
The Cab Calloway School Fund, a non-profit 501©(3) organization, provides scholarships and grants for private lessons, workshops, school trips, instruments, tools and supplies. We made it possible for Cab Calloway School of the Arts to have full piano and strings programs. Most recently our focus has been on the creation of the schools mobile recording studio and reaching out to the greater community via an arts mentoring program at local elementary school. Our summer program (SMArtSummer) offers seven weeks of arts and science camps, attended by more than 915 students in 2023, including full scholarships for special needs, disadvantaged and deaf children.
Twenty four years ago a handful of parents came together to create a new kind of public school for Delaware––one that would achieve excellence in academic education by infusing it with the arts.
It wasn’t easy, but thanks to innovative leadership at the district level and the untiring support of parents, teachers and community, Cab Calloway School of the Arts was born!
Today, 950 students in grades 6-12 attend the school. Inspired by their interests in communication arts, dance, instrumental music, piano, strings, theater, visual arts and vocal music, our students are engaged in the classroom and motivated to succeed.
- Our class of 2017 graduation rate was 100 percent.
- Seventy-three percent of graduates received college and university scholarships totaling more than $9.5 million.
Even more important, however, has been our ability to level the playing field in providing an arts-enhanced education to children who might not otherwise have financial means to access it.
With your generous contribution, the Cab Calloway School Fund can continue to support these programs as well as the innovation and incubation of future initiatives.
