Countless studies show that arts education helps close the opportunity gap, bolsters academic success, and supports student well-being. The skills gained from the arts are the very skills that will be required of the next generation of leaders—empathy for diverse viewpoints, a knack for imagination, a critical eye, and a fearless voice. We owe it to all our students to ensure the arts.
