| February 18, 2009 State of Education: Arts Education in Boston schools
|
(NECN) - The Boston Foundation and NECN continue the series: State of Education: Making the grade in Massachusetts. Over the last year, we have been examining what is working and what isn't in public schools, from preschool to college.
In times of budget cutting, it is the arts that are often first to go. NECN's Chet Curtis and Paul Grogan, President and CEO of the Boston Foundation host the fifth installment in the series focusing on arts education.
Joining Chet and Paul for conversation are:
Steven Seidel, a lecturer on arts education at Harvard's University Graduate School of Education
Anthony Trecek-King, the artistic director of the Boston Children's Chorus
Linda Nathan, the principal of the Boston Arts Academy, a pilot school in the Boston Public School System
Donna Glick, director of education at the Huntington Theatre company.
In this segment, each panelist provides an overview of their involvement in arts education in the Boston schools. What is working and what isn't?
