PAIR Partnership for Arts Integration Research (PAIR) is funded by a four-year award from the U.S. Department of Education's Model Development and Dissemination Grant Program. The program will support arts integration work in six Magnet Cluster Initiative Chicago public schools.

Schools will work in two-school paired teams, with a Fine and Performing Arts Magnet Cluster (FPAMC) school paired with an academic Magnet Cluster school. The PAIR teams are: Lee (Literature & Writing) + Eberhart (FPAMC); Thorp (Math & Science) + Swift (FPAMC); Ward (World Language) + Healy (FPAMC). The goals of PAIR are to: create cross-school partnerships; create models of high-quality arts integrated curriculum; improve teachers' instructional practices; improve student achievement; and disseminate effective arts integration practices to other schools. As the project progresses, additional information will be included on this web page.
