Parents As Reading Partners Program Packet 2011
Arts education not only cultivates imagination, self-expression, and creativity, but also plays a vital role in the development of critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
It promotes visual literacy, which enables students to analyze and interpret the meaning of complex visual imagery that permeates the media and popular culture.

A poem from The Century Book of Famous Americans, By Elbridge S. Brooks
"Squarely prim and stoutly build.
Free from glitter and from gilt.
Plain, from lintel up to roof-tree
And to belfry bare and brown.
Stands the Hall that hot July.
While the folk throng anxious by.
Where the Continental Congress meets
within the Quaker town
Hark! A stir, a sudden shout,
And a boy comes springing out,
Signaling to where his grandsire in the belfry waiting stands:
'Ring! He cries; 'the deed is done!
Ring! they've signed, and freedom's won!'
And the ringer grasps the bell rope
With his strong and sturdy hands;
While the Bell, with joyous note,
Clanging from its brazen throat.
Rings the tidings, all-exultant - pearls news from shore to sea:
Man is man - a slave no longer.
Truth and Right than Might are stronger.
Paise to God. "We're free; we're free."
