The Valley Performing Arts Center’s Arts Education is dedicated to providing high quality, integrative, multicultural arts education for PK-12 students and their classroom teachers to positively impact PK-12 student learning outcome across all discipline areas. As such, all arts education program offerings at the VPAC are directly aligned with the California Core Content Standards as well as the California Visual and Performing Arts Standards.
In partnership with the PK-12 schools in the greater Los Angeles area and its business, industrial, and government agencies, the VPAC’s Arts Education presents and tours performances for students, teachers, and families; offers professional development opportunities for PK-12 teachers and administrators; creates and makes available exemplary models of integrative arts pedagogy and curriculum for schools; and provides arts education resources for PK-12 teachers via the Internet, in print and in person.
Through exposures to and direct access to the performances and the artists, we seek to ensure that the arts remain an integral part of PK-12 education to enrich students’ lives beyond their school experience. Performances for school groups provide opportunities to learn, to explore, and to embrace the arts.
