About Us
DAE programs and services capture student interest and develop their arts skills and abilities through two major approaches to arts education: • Learning in the arts. Students learn through age appropriate, sequential instruction in the arts including, arts skills and techniques development, aesthetics, history of the chosen art form and performing or exhibiting artwork.• Learning through the arts or arts integration. This approach integrates arts instruction and attendance at events, performances, and exhibits with the study of core academic subjects.These two approaches enhance overall student engagement and learning in general and ensure rigorous training and preparation for those students who want to pursue post-secondary study in the arts.
