arts education policy

Arts education policy is a clearly identified course of action, infrastructure, and/or framework established by a governing body—school boards, state legislatures, federal government—designed to guide present and future decisions regarding arts programming, facilities, instruction, curricula, and funding. While arts education policy is adopted, implemented, and funded at the national, state, and local levels, school boards play a fundamental role in designing educational policy at the local level within their school districts.
