The current era of educational accountability and high-stakes
testing in public schools has many in the educational community
wondering about curricular limitations as more and more
instructional time is devoted to subjects that are tested. If
standardized testing has the potential to limit curricular
offerings, students are likely experiencing a reduction in exposure
to the arts in their education and, therefore, constraints in their
development and achievement of mind. This book explores how
exposure and participation in the arts in a child's education are
being affected within the current climate of standards and
accountability driving public schools. Utilizing the narrative
inquiry methodology, stories of educational leaders shed light on
the pressures of accountability, important developmental aspects of
an arts education and aspects of educational leadership necessary
to promote, maintain and grow arts education programs in schools.
The analysis of these stories should be especially useful to
professionals in the field of educational leadership, as well as
arts educators, arts advocates and general education teachers.
