are significant. I think the demand for a local art club is the result of two factors. First, it was clear to me that political decisions around educational reform and the current curriculum have resulted in the decline of arts learning in schools (Neelands et al., 2015, p.44-45). Indirectly this has left a gap in the market and therefore customers (the majority of them being parents) who rate creative vocational learning have searched for out-of-school opportunities for their children. In…

cut out the arts programs in America, economic decisions such as layering the budgets so thin that it leaves no room for the arts programs. “According to a May 28th article published by The Atlantic titled, "The Country's Cultural Capital Has a Big Arts-Education Problem," low income areas in NYC look to cut out art education because of tight budgets”(ArtSchools.com). If we leave the decision making of school budgets up to the politician it is obvious they will choose to cut the arts first.…

that we need to grow up and face ourselves bravely. In this new play, Edward has set an example by becomeing more mature, more genuine to himself and more passion to his bloomy age. The new play was sprouted from a musical called ‘Art School Musical’, as a result that school life has become a label of Edward’s play. No matter how was the stories unfold, the props such as the desks, classrooms, students and teachers would never disapeared. As time passed by, these elements have became symbolic…

The defunding of art and music programs in American public schools is an issue that is important to me. During my high school years, I was introduced show choir, which is singing and dancing. It is an extremely unique experience and I found a passion I did not know I had. This fine arts program helped me build friendships, learn something new, and be engaged and active in my community. Many schools around the nation are eliminating their fine arts programs. Programs like these are essential…

The Hudson River School was a group of artists based in New York City in the mid 19th Century. Primarily known for painting landscapes, the group belonged to many of the same clubs and in 1858 many of them worked at the Studio Building on West 10th Street, the first building in New York City to be built primarily as a workplace for artists. Thomas Cole, considered to be the founder of the movement, was born in England in 1801 and emigrated to the United States in 1818. In 1825 he moved to New…

high school football game than the school musical? Most likely, a ton. Football games have food, themes, and the student section. Students that actively participate in performing arts programs excel more in all aspects of life. Research shows that arts education improves scholarly success. Many students use the arts as a free way to express themselves who struggle with different types of anxiety or insecurities. Cutting performing arts education will not only hurt the students, but the schools…

School districts have budgets. Budgets for supplies, budgets for computers, and budgets for activities, just to state a few. The first thing that usually comes to mind when you think of activities that need money is sports. Therefor, sports end up getting the money and things they want. Other activities that are overlooked when these funds are being distributed are the fine arts programs. Fine arts are arts that are appreciated for their imaginative or thoughtful content. These programs are…

able to experience either sports or the arts. Lately, districts nationwide have paid close attention to the classes that include the Common Core standards. In addition, they also tune in on the big, upcoming exams like PARCC, which are tests that reflect the school’s success in educating the students, generally and individually, and as a result, its reputation as a school altogether. To stand up to the new and high standards placed on students, most schools, including those of Cranston, have…

High School students should not be required to take art classes again. “Making An Art of Education” states that many elementary schools are incorporating arts education in their curriculum, so why should it actually be repeated? During end of the year-awards ceremonies and recognition events, students are promoted to the next grade because they have become proficient in the current set of classes including art classes. If they have become proficient in 5th or 8th grade art, what real world…

without inspiration. Imagine a world without self expression. These elements of individualism appear from what are known as the arts. Making their first appearance in youth education, the arts are vital to a child’s growth and development. But as time rolls on, the arts have been trashed, beaten, and thrown into a worthless junk pile. Schools are treating the arts like they are lambs to the slaughter. The next big hit songwriter could be sitting in the third seat of the front row of a…
