ABOUT ARTS IN EDUCATION
Park Glen Elementary PTA believes all students deserve the opportunity to take part in the arts, both in school and in the community. The arts can positively affect entire school culture- especially student motivation, attitudes, and attendance- which encourages students to stay in school, succeed in school, succeed in work and succeed in life! We are committed to ensuring that every child has access to- and takes part in- high quality arts learning experiences.
