Lesson Plans/Curriculum
Fine art is that in which the hand, the head, and the heart of a man go together.
John Ruskin
Arlington County Public Schools Arts Education
Arts Education Mission Statement
Arts Education is an integral part of the core curriculum and provides students with unique experiences not taught in other core areas. The arts offer powerful tools for expression - tools for making connections between intellect and emotion, tools for bringing meaning and beauty into students' lives, and tools for solving problems and communicating ideas. They are an essential part of human history providing a foundation for understanding the past, present, and the future.
Studies in the arts foster perceptual awareness, cognitive processes, aesthetic literacy and life-coping skills. Participating in arts experiences enhances self-esteem, builds self-discipline, and reinforces societal values, such as cooperation, commitment, and working towards a common goal. Interdisciplinary arts experiences promote an artistically literate society and stronger understanding of oneself.
