What is Why Our Schools Need the Arts: 0 about?

This inspiring book leads the way to a new kind of advocacy—one that stops justifying the arts as useful to learning other subjects, and argues instead for the powerful lessons that the arts, like no other subjects, teach our children. Jessica Hoffmann Davis, a leading voice in the field of arts education, offers a set of principles and tools that will be invaluable to advocates already working hard to make the case and secure a strong place for the arts in education.

This book is for anyone willing to brave a new terrain in which the arts are finally embraced without apology!“A must-read for anyone who cares about kids.”—Carly Simon, author and musician“Equips educators with clear examples of how to teach and how to make the case for the essential and unique place of the arts in the school curriculum.”—Richard J.

Providing eloquent evidence of what the arts do and teach, this is a useful handbook for teach
