Visual and Performing Arts
We are committed to educating the whole child. Visual and Performing Arts (VAPA) is an integral part of a high-quality, well-rounded educational foundation. CCCOE supports districts as they implement VAPA content standards, integrate VAPA into core curriculum, and develop STEAM programs that endeavor to engage all students.
Our services include:
* Support for customized high-quality Professional Learning.
* Coaching and Leadership support with Arts and Music in Schools Funding implementation.
* Facilitating a CCCOE Arts Convening, a countywide collaboration with representatives from districts throughout, focused on relevant updates from federal and state agencies and improving teaching and learning.
On November 8, 2022, California voters approved Proposition 28: The Arts and Music in Schools (AMS) Funding Guarantee and Accountability Act. The measure required the state to establish a new, ongoing program supporting arts instruction in schools beginning in 2023–24. CCCOE supports districts in strategic arts planning through regular Arts Convenings with district arts leaders.
