Maryland Arts Education needs your voice
Take Action Today!
Linked is a letter of concern signed by the Presidents of the four Maryland Arts Education Professional Associations: Maryland Art Education Association, Maryland Dance Education Association, Maryland Music Educators Association, and the Maryland Theatre Education Association.
We sent this letter to MSDE Superintendent Choudhury to voice our concern over the lack of a Fine Arts Office at the Maryland State Department of Education, and offer ourselves and our associations as partners in arts education work at the State Department. We do so in the interest of maintaining Maryland's national status as a home of quality school Arts Education. We invite our membership and other concerned citizens of the state of Maryland to reach out to Superintendent Choudhury, or their state representative, to voice their concerns about the lack of representation for Fine Arts Education at MSDE and in the Blueprint for Maryland's Future.
