Arts Education Collaborative Baseline Survey on the State of Arts Education in Southwestern Pennsylvania
GENERAL
This document reports the findings from a survey designed to provide a snapshot of the state of K-12 arts education in Western Pennsylvania, including Allegheny, Fayette, Greene and Washington counties. Using other large-scale surveys in arts education as a guide we covered topics including: arts curriculum and requirements, professional development, student participation, critical needs, supervision and leadership, teacher beliefs and activity in the arts. The survey was designed to provide the Arts Education Collaborative with a means to establish some key benchmarks and a means by which to begin longitudinal tracking of arts education in the region.
