Minneapolis Public Schools

Cook a variety of Italian foods. We will learn new recipes and enjoy our delicious, cooked Italian foods! To ensure that our high-quality enrichment classes are accessible to all families, Minneapolis Community Education offers fees on a sliding scale. The class fee is the average cost of offering a class. Families are asked to pick the class fee or the price that they are able to pay. When families participate as they are able, at all levels of our sliding scale, the whole program becomes self-sustaining. Thank you for your consideration as you sign up for summer programs!

Music has the power to join people together in a cause, to the point where governments have banned particular songs out of fear music will inspire rebellion or revolution. From the Revolutionary War songs to the union songs of the 1930s, and from music of the Civil Rights movement in the 1960s to climate activism and feminist hip hop, learn the ways music has been used to inspire change.  This program is cosponsored by HCL and MacPhail. The program is funded with money from Minnesota’s Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund.

Community Education uses a sliding scale model for program fees so our programs can be financially sustainable and more equitable. Participants are asked to pick the price that they are able to pay. By more clearly articulating our lower cost options, we have removed the barrier that some may have felt in making scholarship requests. When participants sign up at the higher price levels, they help make the program more sustainable. Regardless of the price you choose, the instruction, content and quality remain the same.
