Title I Funding

March 21, 2011

Follow-up to National Governor’s Association meeting in Washington, D.C.

Happy Spring!

“There are right ways and wrong ways to cut spending, and the most important guiding principle I can offer is to minimize the negative impact on students and seize this opportunity to direct your spending to the highest priorities.”

The Secretary of Education, Arne Duncan’s remarks, and guidance is online at  http://www.ed.gov/news/press-releases/department-education-provides-promising-practices-productivity-flexibility.  The arts education reference is included in the Guidance on Productivity document under the “First, Do No Harm” section. This information may be of help in supporting arts education programs in state education budgets, and before local school boards.

  1. I am having a hard time finding the section you reference about the arts funding. Can someone direct me to it? Thanks!
