ABSTRACT

Assessment, like the very substance and quality of the (arts integration) program, is an area that requires utmost attention for the sake of students and teachers, arts administrator David Flatley says. Marketing is everything. Arts integration markets itself in communities and schools where it has been taken seriously Why? Because it does contribute to student learning. Orozco School Principal Rebecca de los Reyes says: I don’t care how cute the activity is, how much fun the kids have, or how much art they are doing. Show me how it’s related in a meaningful way to the objectives and standards, and to the curriculum. Show me how you focus on those things to help students achieve.
