Research Abstract
Arts Education in Wisconsin Public Schools

Every district in the state offered Art at the high-school level. 75% of middle school students were enrolled in Arts courses and 88.5% were enrolled in Music. When offered, Dance has greater enrollment than Theater in middle schools. At the high-school level, music enrollment declines to 73%. Rural communities have more favorable participation levels and student-teacher-ratios. Overall student enrollment has remained flat, but Music and Art enrollment have both declined by more than 5% in the past four years. Theater and Dance enrollments have increased in the past four years, although total participation is still small.
