| In the state of New Jersey, increased emphasis is placed on the
disciplines of dance, music, theater, and visual art as a critical
attribute to the success of students and the state, especially during
the formative years of an elementary K-6 education. It is the intent of
the standards to ensure that all students have regular sequential arts
instruction and that specialization takes into account student choice.
The visual and performing arts standards provide both the foundation
for creating local curricula decisions and the opportunity for
meaningful assessments in all four art forms, while reflecting the
expectations of the National Standards for Arts Education. |
