Art, music and PE
Guilford County Schools Superintendent and Human Resources Director Mike Harris will meet with some art, music and PE teaches next week to discuss complaints about working conditions in elementary schools. The decision to have the meeting prevented a protest planned at Thursday's school board meeting.
Teachers complain they get the short end of the stick when it comes to prep/planning time, classroom space and funding. What do you think?

It is hard for some to accept, but art, PE, and music is not as important as reading and math. They want equal pay and equal status. The art, PE and music teachers should be bending over backwards in the support of the teachers that are doing the heavy lifting in math and reading. Ask a teacher why they are in art, PE or music. If they are honest they will tell you that it is easier.

Joe, you don't know everything about this issue. Keep listening for the details. Even Grier's biggest fan may be surprised. It's not always about somebody wanting an easy road.

I am listening. Pls fill me in. I may be wrong.

Many, many studies ahve bourne out the link between better perfomance in all academic areas and increased participation in art and music. PE is crucial in a society of couch potatoes/video gamers. Healthy lifestyles are learned early and can promote tremendous societal savings in reduced health care costs over a lifetime. Cut these programs or make the jobs of those who teach them very, very difficult by all-but eliminating planning time, and you will get LOWER scores and grades, more disinterested students and frankly fatter and fatter student bodies.
Children sing, dance and make their magical scribbly drawings long before they read, write and do math. The visceral pleasure and cognitive development following from arts and movement are among the wellsprings for later achievement. For many kids (and adults, if more would only stop to engage in such life-affirming activities) they continue to be great motivators for life-long learning.
The math and reading teachers should thank their stars there are capable, talented and inspiring art, music and PE teachers, just as professional and worth remuneration as they are.
Come to think of it, how motivated would the kids of the CEO and banker, doctor and lawyer be to go to school if they were going to be offered books and numbers, books and numbers? No music allowed. And while you're at it, stopp doodling! Paper is for writing and working math problems ONLY. And if you get tired and squirmy, oh, just run around unsupervised for awhile.
Oh, I know, make them all join a high-pressure, high-impact sport team (if they make the cut). If not, call 'em washed-up and let 'em cake.

How important is music in school?
Ask Rashad Woods from Eastern Guilford High School?
He has received scholarships from both Carolina and Duke University because of his talent developed in the Eastern Guilford music program with the trumpet.
Let's ask him what role unimportant music teachers played in this.

The only point I was trying to make is that reading and writing is the cornerstone of all learning. I would like my children to be schooled in all areas. However, the most important is English, Math and Reading. If we have a shortage of teachers, I would hope they would not be in English, Math and Science. EOG tests are not about PE and Art. PE, Music and Art can be learned later. Other subjects cannot. Some people need to wake up to the real world. Kids are not reading. They don't do things to develop vocabulary, etc. Plan A is to have it all. Plan B is to have what is important. This is the real world.

I agree Joe.
When I was in College and I needed to elevate my grade point average, I did what most of my friends did, enroll in what we termed the "artsy fartsy" easy to pass courses to help raise the GPA.
As a nation, we're getting stomped by other nations in the areas of the hard sciences. We're graduating fewer engineers, and if I'm correct, the UNC system last year graduated only 3 physics majors.
Limited school resources should be better allocated to those study programs that will make our students better able to compete in the global economy.

Understanding of reading and math don't magically appear ina child's head in a vacuum, people. "Number sense" precedes actual grasp of conceptual applications. Words and phrases are eeply connected to visualization skills.
As for taking those "easy courses": I teach art history and aesthetics in college. The courses are regularly evaluated as "too hard" by entering freshman, because they have skated through NON-arts courses in high school. Rote memorization in "social studies" and science courses doesn't develop a critical mind, which is crucial to today's workforce.
Finally, remember that Leonardo, Piero della Francesca, Einstein and many other inventors and great thinkers were artists and musicians. The desire to read and solve problems, the habit of curiosity is what drives achievement. Arts and music, along with the sheer physical motion and healthy expression of one's body, are among the few things keeping many kids IN school!

Most people that become great artists, don't skip reading and math. You seem to be saying those that teach reading and math are not getting the job done. One of the reasons for this is that too many of our best ang brighest teachers choose to be in subjects like art, music or PE. Proficency in reading benefits all subjects. It is always win-win. There is no down side.

I didn't intend to imply the reading and math teachers aren't working hard. I don't know exactly what is bringing so many students to college unprepared to use critical thought process, though. I also was trying to point out the real importance of arts classes to developing higher-level thought.
I agree reading proficiency is crucial. My wife has her M.Ed in Reading and teaches students who consistently read well above grade level. Many of them come from privileged backgrounds (black and white). What changes, though, in high school is the need to read critically, not just using more vocabulary and complexity, both of which are also important. Evaluative strategies when digesting information and forming opinions seems to whither on the vine in the upper grades.
Art and music offer alternative ways "into" information, and can extended as physical learning, just like PE offers. Many students are better at various non-academic "intelligences", as Howard Gardner's research shows. Each can reinforce the other.
