Just got off a webinar with Create CA that really hit home the importance of arts education in early childhood development. It's not just about creativity, but building crucial cognitive and social-emotional skills. Sadly, 9 in 10 CA schools aren't providing the arts education required by state policy. We're letting our kids down. Arts education shouldn't be an afterthought, especially during those critical early years. It's time CA (and really everywhere) steps up to ensure every child has access to the arts programming they deserve. Let's work together to change this! #artseducation #musicenrichment #earlyeducation

Prop 28 gives about $1 billion each year for California schools to implement arts and music programs. Unfortunately... Turns out pretty much everyone is confused. 😕 When Prop 28 passed in 2022, I knew Minibop would be the perfect partner to deliver these much-needed music programs to schools. However, since then I've talked to numerous teachers and admin who want to use our program but have no idea how Prop 28 funding "pays" for it. We've done our best to decipher the language published by the California Department of Education, but it appears schools are still in the dark on how much they qualify for, and when/how they access the funds. This EdSource article by Mallika Seshadri points to the fact that different districts have opted to use the funds inconsistently, leading to a disconnect between districts and schools and the CDE. So, despite there being $1 billion in Prop 28 funding available for arts and music programs, many qualified organizations (Minibop included) have not been able to provide services. Nevertheless - we’ll keep working with schools to help them use it so they don't lose it! If you work with a K-5 school in CA feel free to reach out to me about how much Prop 28 funds you should be receiving in your Principal Apportionments. https://lnkd.in/ecDDt4mu #prop28 #proposition28 #schoolfunding
