A note about our ARTS-IN-EDUCATION PROGRAMS -

Adhering to “National Standards For Arts Education” and “Goals 2000,” Pushcart’s expanding arts-in-education programs offer students the opportunity to develop critical thinking skills, problem solving and self-discipline. These objectives, conducted by our Director of Arts Education and guided by our Education Advisory Board, provide sequential learning in the arts, are tied into the Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) and the SCANS Report currently in use for curriculum development.
