Americans largely consider arts to be part of a well-rounded K-12 education, according to a, with 88% agreeing that it is. And that level of agreement continued with respondents saying arts education was equally important at all grade levels. However, results differed when it came to who has access to the arts, like hearing live music, seeing live theater, visiting museums, and attending cultural arts.
In an environment where students can express themselves and their knowledge, it boosts their engagement with learning other subjects, like STEM courses. I don’t think kids see the world in these isolated and siloed subject areas. They see things as the integrated world in which we live, said JESSICA SAWKO, DIRECTOR OF EDUCATION AT CHILDREN NOWin 2019, largely looking at elementary schools. Students engaging with arts education had a nearly 4% reduction in discipline, a 13% increase in standardized writing scores, and an 8% increase in compassion for others.
“Everyone practices, and everyone can gain a really solid skill within the arts, but we don’t commit to that or value it, so we push it aside,” Yang says. “It’s really unfortunate because then we lose out on so many of the additional things that the arts teach us.”There haven’t been any concrete studies about how much time students should be spending on art education at each grade level, what staffing should look like, or what materials and facilities should be available.
