Resolution adopted by the Delegate Assembly of the National Association of Elementary School Principals, April 27, 1976
Item Text
NAESP is concerned that arts programs are often inadequately funded in schools today and frequently the area of the curriculum most vulnerable to budget cuts. The association believes that the arts are a funcitonal part of the broad curriculum demands of our society; and, therefore, reaffirms the belief that the arts should be an integral part of the basic curriculum. The association urges educators and schools to integrate the arts more fully into the educational program as a valuable means of revitalizing the content of all subject matter areas and also as a means of revitalizing the teaching process itself.
