It has been a concern of mine that our children and the coming generations are losing the arts in their education systems.
It is a concern to the Kinderdance family, as well. It is incredible that we provide dance education in your child's school, as many public and private education systems are providing less funding, if not cutting arts programs entirely.
I highly recommend you view the official blog of the U.S. Department of Education called "Homeroom" at ed.gov
I want to share two exerpts that may be informative to you:
"For Theatre and Dance in elementary schools, the percentage of schools making these art forms available went from 20% ten years ago to only 4-3%, respectively, in the 2009-10 school year."
......
"A well-rounded education is simply too vital to our students' success to let the teaching of the arts and humanities erode."
Never forget, the Kinderdance family nurtures the educational growth of your child through dance. Educate your family on the importance of the arts in school!
All the best,
Miss Lee
