Arts Education Task Force

The North Dakota Council on the Arts has convened a task force comprised of educators, school administrators, policy makers, parents, artists, arts organizations, and community leaders in the state to identify, support, and expand the quality of learning in and through the arts. The task force meets on a quarterly basis to adopt action agendas that will focus the collective efforts of its participating members into the promotion and improvement of arts education, and to meet the following goals:

  • Promote arts education to all North Dakota schools- step by step, school by school.
  • Promote implementation of the dance, drama, music, and visual arts content and performance standards in North Dakota schools.
  • Initiate professional development opportunities that bring together teams of school principals, arts specialists, teachers, youth program providers, and others who work in arts learning with children and communities.
