Idea about how to make LA a better place to learn, submitted by this organization in the 2020 challenge.
Make LA the best place to LEARN
One of five LA2050 Goals
Our region offers opportunities for lifelong learning, allowing all residents to contribute their skills, talents, and abilities to society.
By 2050, all Los Angeles students will have access to early education programs, every high school student will graduate and be college and career ready, and all parents will be engaged and empowered to direct their children’s learning. LA will capitalize on its concentration of higher education facilities to foster new businesses, advance research, and spur innovation.
Tuition-Free Digital Arts Education
The LA2050 Challenge funds will go directly toward the tuition costs of our inaugural cohort of 40 students. They will receive a tuition-free, 3-year education in digital arts using our proven curriculum from working professionals in the entertainment industry. In addition, they will receive wraparound services to promote retention among low-income or underserved students to ensure they complete the program, including counseling, soft-skills training, transportation, and other assistance.
