You’re more than a student; you’re an influential force not to be ignored.
California students, take action in the fight for arts education.

Here’s why: students need a compelling reason to GO to school, and with low morale around school culture and a lack of mental health resources, visual and performing arts courses play an essential part in getting students through the doors.

If you’re a teacher here’s how you can participate in the Student Voices Challenge

The Student Voices Challenge awaits the influential voices of your students to reshape arts education in your schools. Use this lesson plan to encourage civic engagement for more arts education.
