DISTRICT ARTS MISSION What t Student udents s Should ould Know w and d Be Able e to Do in the e Ar Arts • Communicate at a basic level in the four arts disciplines – music, visual arts, theatre and dance. This includes knowledge and skills in the use of basic vocabularies, materials, tools, techniques and intellectual methods of each arts discipline. • Communicate proficiently in at least one art form. • Be able to develop and present basic analyses of works of art. • Have an informed acquaintance with exemplary works of art from a variety of cultures and historical perspectives and a basic understanding of the historical development of the arts as a whole. • Be able to relate various types of arts knowledge and skills within and across arts disciplines. "The rapidly evolving global economy demands a dynamic and creative workforce. The arts and its related businesses are responsible for billions of dollars in cultural exports for this country. It is imperative that we continue to support the arts and arts education both on the national and local levels. The strength of every democracy is measured by its commitment to the arts.” – Charles Segars, CEO of Ovation
