National Arts in Education Week a yearly event that occurs during the week beginning with the second Sunday of September. This week we’re reminded that the arts are not just electives, but essentials that shape how students see themselves and the world around them. Music, dance, painting, or theater. These are not just subjects; they’re doorways into creativity, confidence, and connection. When schools embrace the arts, they foster curiosity, critical thinking, and a sense of belonging that no standardized test can measure. This week isn’t just about applause for what the arts have done, it’s a call to ensure every student continues to have access to the transformative power of creative expression.
