Members:<\/p>\n<p>Usually someone like me is writing to you at the\u00a0<em>end<\/em>\u00a0of the year, pleading for no cuts to be made to our arts programs. \u00a0But I decided to be proactive and write this at the<em>beginning<\/em>\u00a0of the year \u2014 instead focusing on discussing with you ways in which our programs should\u00a0<em>grow and prosper<\/em>, not just survive.<\/p>\n<p>Too often, our community is forced to defend the arts in the face of budget season, but we can do better than this. \u00a0We need to utilize this \u201cquieter\u201d time of year to not only celebrate the arts in education, but to discuss ways to fully incorporate it into the lives of our children so that we rarely\u00a0need to discuss dismantling our programs ever again.<\/p>\n<p>I believe it\u2019s important to start this year by reminding ourselves of what the goal of our community is in regards to the education of our children. \u00a0In my view, we are charged with at least these three things:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>We\u2019re teaching\u00a0our students\u00a0skills necessary for entering the global\u00a0<\/strong><b>workforce<\/b>\u00a0\u2014 but let\u2019s be careful with this. \u00a0We are preparing them for jobs that\u00a0<em>do not exist yet<\/em>\u00a0due to the speed at which technology is changing the world, so using an \u201cIndustrial Revolution model\u201d of education is no longer appropriate.<\/li>\n<li><strong>We\u2019re preparing them to be great citizens.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>We\u2019re teaching them to be great human beings \u2014\u00a0<\/strong>people\u00a0who can enjoy the deeper forms of beauty, and thus think creatively and in innovative ways about the two points listed above.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>During these times of tough budget choices, music advocates such as myself are constantly forced into speaking to the tangible benefits of arts education to ensure it remains a vital part of our public education system. \u00a0In this case,\u00a0we need to discuss more about how the arts can become<em>\u00a0<\/em>a more vital part of the system in tangible\u00a0<em>and<\/em>\u00a0intangible (non-tested) ways.<\/p>\n<p>Here are reasons\u00a0I believe music and the arts have a profound impact on our school system, and some ideas to\u00a0incorporate the arts into each and every school day:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Music\u00a0is a core part of our life. \u00a0<\/strong>Before we discuss ways music and the arts \u201chelps\u201d academics, let\u2019s first make a strong statement as a school community that all young people\u00a0should participate in\u00a0the arts\u00a0because it\u2019s central to every human society on earth and has an unbelievably\u00a0important role in every aspect of culture; including history, literature, media and ways in which we communicate. \u00a0The intrinsic value of the arts and their role in our daily lives and society \u2014 and the importance of helping young people understand and appreciate that value and role \u2014 should be at the forefront of our educators\u2019 and administrators\u2019 minds.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Music education can close our achievement gap. \u00a0<\/strong><span data-reactid=\".3t.1:5.0.0.0.1:$comment767198430069878_767614423361612\/=10.0.$right.0.$left.0.0.1.$comment-body.0.0\"><span

standardized testing. \u00a0While I personally believe that a student\u2019s\u00a0success should not be determined by test scores, let\u2019s play that game while referencing some data:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>Not only do the arts improve standardized test scores<\/em>, a 2012 report\u00a0from the National Endowment for the Arts showed that, by nearly every indicator studied, a student from a low-socioeconomic (SES) background with a high-arts educational experience significantly outperformed peers from a low-arts, low-SES background, closing (and in some cases eliminating) the gap that often appears between low-SES students and their more advantaged peers. \u00a0These improvements were in graduation rates, college attendance and completion rates, and science and writing scores on the\u00a0National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP).<\/p>\n<p>My point is that we have tried giving SES students \u201cmore school\u201d to boost test scores, and not only has it barely worked \u2014 it\u2019s not making them like school any more than they already do (and many are miserable). \u00a0What if we engaged them in an artistic and creative manner\u00a0<em>and test scores go up as a result? \u00a0<\/em>When are we going to try something different?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Top-down mandates are one thing, but implementation in the classroom is another. \u00a0<\/strong>If we continue to create school schedules that are solely based on state mandates without any creative implementation on our part, our children lose. \u00a0Besides, these mandates and educational fads are changing all the time, leaving us reactive and scrambling to conform instead of proactive and placing the mandates \u201cwhere they belong\u201d. \u00a0Whatever our educational leaders say about the arts, they measure achievement through math and language arts scores, not drawing proficiency or music skills. \u00a0It\u2019s no surprise then that our\u00a0district has zeroed in on the tests. \u00a0We can do better, and we have the capacity to decide to be ahead of the curve regarding education reform if we choose to do so.<\/p>\n<p><strong>We need to narrow the \u201copportunity gap.\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0 While we continue to keep up with these state mandates and new testing fads, our economically disadvantaged kids lose out big time. \u00a0They are the ones who see more contact time in academic subjects at the expense of the music and the arts, yet they are the ones who may benefit most from music\u2019s benefits: \u00a0enhanced brain development, spatial\/visual\/temporal processing, improving memory and attention, physical coordination, personal discipline and teamwork. \u00a0Consider the fact that students with access to arts education have higher attendance rates and lower drop out rates, and that the arts engage the parents and families of students who are involved in performances and recitals. \u00a0Why wouldn\u2019t we make the arts available to at-risk students in abundance?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Creativity is learned and it must be a habit, so we need to create innovative school schedules. \u00a0<\/strong>Like any other learned skill, creativity must become a habit in order for it to \u201cstick\u201d. \u00a0One day a week of the arts in the school schedule, especially in the earlier grades, is a far shot from teaching creativity.<strong>\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>How would we build a \u201cperfect\u201d school day for our students if there were no state mandates?<em>\u00a0Let\u2019s start there.<\/em>\u00a0\u00a0That ideal schedule\u00a0would reflect our true values as a community and act as a powerful starting point for building a schedule that works for\u00a0<em>all<\/em>\u00a0children. \u00a0There are no perfect schedules, but a carefully planned schedule should include flexibility that will positively impact teaching, instruction, and professional development in the arts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>We need to train every single teacher in the arts. \u00a0<\/strong>A curriculum rich in the arts is a more engaging curriculum for all. \u00a0We need to pool our resources and provide professional development opportunities throughout the year to give our teachers\u00a0step-by-step strategies to teach in and through the arts. \u00a0This will greatly help our teachers bring art and music into their students\u2019 everyday classroom experience. \u00a0Through this development, our teachers can learn to teach the \u201cwhole child\u201d and reach students who may struggle with traditional approaches to learning \u2014 students who have been \u201clost\u201d in our test-rich system until now. \u00a0This will be some of the best money we have ever spent for our schools.<\/p>\n<p>I am writing this because, like you, I want to see the students in our schools succeed, and I\u2019ve seen first-hand the powerful impact arts education can have on students\u2019 academic success. \u00a0Our arts-centered school reform initiatives can engage students and teachers, improve our schools\u2019 climates and cultures, and help connect our schools to families and communities. \u00a0We need to do\u00a0everything we can to\u00a0fuel students\u2019 imaginations and creativity; the arts will enhance students problem-solving and critical thinking skills, which aid their learning in other subject areas. \u00a0An education in the arts exposes students to a variety of cultures while enriching their learning experience and teaching them how to be empathetic, tolerant and open to working with others \u2014 all necessary skills for success in our multi-cultural society.<\/p>\n<p>Music and arts education should not be a luxury in our district. \u00a0Creativity isn\u2019t only reserved for artists and musicians, so let\u2019s turn this problem on its head and share the belief that the arts as the nucleus of an education are essential for every child. \u00a0Learning to create and appreciate visual and aural aesthetics is\u00a0more important than ever before to the development of the next generation of\u00a0great thinkers, innovators, and human beings.<\/p>\n<p>We have tried the way of the almighty test. \u00a0Let\u2019s try\u00a0something different.<\/p>\n<p>Sincerely,<\/p>\n<p>An Optimistic
