• The arts engage and offer challenges for ALL students from every cultural background.
• “The arts give us the creativity to express ourselves while challenging our intellect.” Dr. Terry Bergeson
• Arts-based instruction can increase family and community support. Arts based teaching and learning “opens avenues” for students who would not ordinarily have the opportunity to experience the learning that the arts provide.
Cornett, C., 2007

Students in “arts rich” schools scored higher in creativity-imagination, expression, cooperative learning, risk-taking, and measures of academic self-concept than students in “arts poor” schools.

“. . . I felt like I had stepped into a new era of American public schools. I have rarely
experienced a school community so clearly dedicated to arts teaching and learning as
the basis for school equity and excellence.”
