iN Education's overarching goal is to help students understand themselves; our motto is “Your journey, your impact, our future.” Identifying an individual’s gift(s) matters. We proudly offer programs and services focusing on social-emotional wellness, self-exploration, self-development, arts, culture, and humanities. We believe that education is the foundation of a generation’s ability to survive and thrive in the future. Each generation faces new challenges, and our education system must continually engage, motivate and stimulate our students to be adequately prepared to meet those challenges. The next generation of aspiring leaders, innovators, and entrepreneurs will be leading far more complicated, diverse people who are well-informed yet unprepared. It’s imperative to influence and shape newer generations for a better future.

The overarching goal for iN Education's Battle of the Teal art program is to develop, groom, and prepare K-12 students interested in showcasing their visual and performing art forms. All participating youth gain access to our platform as a way to express, engage and connect with their peers and art community through various program activities. As educators, coaches, mentors, creatives, and other professionals, it is our duty to be mindful of the potential effects participation in a competitive environment may have on students. We expect that most youth would have an interest in pursuing a career path in one of the creative industries

Battle of the Teal is more than a talent show. It is a year-round hybrid program full of Arts & Culture, and Education. Participating young artists receive resources delivered in various ways: one-on-one or group mentoring or coaching sessions, hands-on, creative projects, and live or video presentations related to their art interests. Our services have been offered primarily virtually in school and/or after school for the last two years. We are open, by request, to accommodate in-person activities.
