🌟 Meet Kim Elmore, our Cedar Crest Enrichment Coordinator! Joining the team in August 2017 to implement the enrichment portion of our strategy with the youth, Kim Elmore brought with her over 35 years of experience in education and administration, including public and private school, as well as homeschooling her own children. She has written homeschooling and art curriculum and co-authored Pass the TExES, a test prep manual for Texas teachers exams, EC-6. Her degrees and certifications include elementary education, administration, art, and dance (K-12). Additionally, she has taught a variety of dance and drill team classes throughout the US. Kim's passion is instilling the love of the arts in children as well as nurturing creative play. Her goal for the enrichment component is to provide opportunities for discovery and imagination for the children at Behind Every Door through quality artists, venues, and creative play that will plant seeds for creativity in later years. Kim and her husband Paul, both graduates from Hillcrest High School and Dallas natives, have been married for 38 years and have 4 grown children. Currently, Kim Elmore is the Enrichment Coordinator, dedicated to building relationships with children and youth. Kim provides exposure to the arts in many forms by contracting artists, teaching, and organizing field trips. She inspires the application of creative thinking to all areas of life. Kim ensures that the artists are not only skilled in their craft and excellent in teaching children but also relatable and able to connect with the students. Programming occurs within the context of relationships with the artists, who must understand and execute Behind Every Door’s philosophy of working with children. Kim's role is vital in fostering a creative and supportive environment for the youth. Join us in welcoming Kim as she continues her mission to serve and uplift the Southern Dallas community with Behind Every Door at the Cedar Crest Community Center. #CedarCrestCommunity #MeetTheDirector #CommunityLeadership
