PHILOSOPHY
• Why is it important for students to study
the arts as part of a comprehensive and
balanced education?
PURPOSE

DANCE• Is used to communicate, comprehend, shape, and make
meaning

• The dance program develops creativity, problem-solving, self-discipline, and focus, and helps people connect to one another
MUSIC

• Provides a primary means for learning about ourselves and
others
• The music program develops musical literacy and relies on
processes of creating, performing, and responding to
develop understanding
THEATRE ARTS

• Students come equipped with rudimentary skills as playwrights, actors, designers, directors, and audience members
• The theatre arts program integrates multiple aspects of the art form including script writing, acting, designing, directing, researching, comparing art forms, analyzing, critiquing, and understanding context
VISUAL ARTS
• Is innate in every society
• Provides a multi-sensory means to communicate symbols and values
• Is a multi-faceted creative process which includes the development of perceptual awareness and the ability to use materials expressively
• The visual arts program is designed to develop visual literacy by promoting fluency in various modes of visual communication
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION,
STANDARDS, AND RESEARCH
• What do the Essential Standards
communicate?
• How are other standards and research
reflected in the NC Essential Standards?
FEATURES
• Explain at least one key feature of the
North Carolina Arts Education Essential
Standards.
