The Fine and Performing Arts & Education

“Education either functions as an instrument which is used to facilitate integration of the younger generation into the logic of the present system and bring about conformity or it becomes the practice of freedom, the means by which men and women deal critically and creatively with reality and discover how to participate in the transformation of their world. (Paulo Freire)”

I see too many public service commercials-today-exhorting us to support the Performing and Fine Arts in public education. We, as a nation, have evidently become so low-brow, or unsophisticated, that we can no longer see the need for Art education in our schools.

And what does it mean if you or your child is diagnosed with a learning disability?

Learning disabilities have been legally described in educational by-laws and under the Americans with Disabilities Act as “a significant gap between a person’s intelligence and the skills a person has achieved at each age.” The National Institutes of Mental Health (NIMH) define a learning disability or LD as “a disorder that affects people’s ability to either interpret what they see and hear or to link information from different parts of the brain. These limitations can show up in many ways—as specific difficulties with spoken and written language, coordination, self-control, or attention. Such difficulties extend to schoolwork and can impede learning to read or write, or to do math.”
