Book excerpt: These arts standards represent a consensus concerning what every young student should know and be able to do in the arts. The Consortium of National Arts Education Associations believes that every student at every level, pre-kindergarten through grade 12, should have access to a balanced, comprehensive, and sequential program of instruction in the arts, taught by qualified teachers. The opportunity-to-learn standards in this book include standards for: (1) curriculum and scheduling; (2) staffing; (3) materials and equipment; and (4) facilities. The book is divided into four sections: (1) dance; (2) music; (3) theater; and (4) visual arts. These sections function as semi-independent units with a reference list at the end of each section to provide further sources for consultation. (EH)
