Arts Education
Every child in Los Angeles County should have access to standards-based, quality, sequential arts education – an arts curriculum that is taught by a qualified teacher, is ongoing and meaningful, and tied to learning in other critical subjects, such as science, math, and English. Realizing this goal is a central piece of Arts for LA's Platform.
We've collected posts, blogs, articles, and other helpful information about arts education below.
