Summary:
High Quality Education in the Arts is a handbook for parents, designed to empower them to advocate for quality arts education for their children.
Abstract:
An individual's experiences with the arts begin in infancy and last throughout his or her life. In recognition of the role of the arts in education, Pennsylvania has adopted arts standards for kindergarten through twelfth grade, and general learning standards for early childhood (preschool) that include "Creative Arts." While this handbook focuses on K-8 standards, early childhood and high school arts programs are also vitally important for children and youth. Following are brief guidelines for parents of children in those age groups.
