Arts Education Key to Improving High School Graduation Rates November 13, 2009
A recent study conducted by The Center for Arts Education has shown that strong art programs play an integral role in the graduation rates of high schoolers. Data collected from 200 New York City high schools revealed some startling facts:
- High schools in the top third of graduation rates had almost 40 percent more certified arts teachers per student than schools in the bottom third—or, on average, one additional arts teacher per school.
- High schools in the top third of graduation rates had almost 40 percent more physical spaces dedicated to arts learning per student than schools in the bottom third.
- High schools in the top third of graduation rates had 35 percent more graduates completing three or more arts courses than schools in the bottom third.

This site appears to get a great deal of visitors. How do you advertise it? It gives a nice individual spin on things. I guess having something authentic or substantial to give info on is the most important factor.
Always glad to follow an interesting blog . Thank you for the input . Of course, apart from the content , the design of your site looks honestly nice . Cheers.
An interesting concept this. I am one of those people whom tend to wait for things to mature before taking action but in this case I am mindful that inaction leads to only failures so I will heed your comments and start to do something about it.
This sort of information should be valued by everyone – it is something that I think we can all draw upon. I very much like the theme you are using here which I think is wordpress isn’t it?
