School is a rare Level 1 public school on the south side of Chicago and was the focus of a documentary, The Curators of Dixon School (2012), because of the school's unique art focused learning environment.

Keep The school has one of the largest collections of African art of the Diaspora outside of a museum and uses that artwork as part of its educational curriculum. Since 1998 they have also hosted an annual art fair call the "Cultural Coonection African Marketplace and Bazaar" were students are able to sell their own artwork while also hosting workshops for the public. Given that the school is also academically successful and not a magnet or charter school I vote Keep since academically-successful, art-based public schools in the inner-city are rare.
