If only the feds and the states knew how important the arts are to education. It's a shame regular classroom teachers have their hands tied (by my state anyway) and aren't able to bring out creativity in students. We are bound by scripted teaching materials.............not good for kids!!!

this is why art programs should never be cut

Mr. B, can you clone yourself and go to every school in the country to work your magic?

Congrats to the kids of PS 22 and Mr B. His dad was my gym teacher at JHS 142 in Red Hook.

Congradulations to this teacher and his chorus. I also applaud the principal at that school that has the vision to keep this project going. Wow what a way to keep these kids off the streets and focused.

So teachers are overpaid, layoffs are necessary, arts funding is an extra? I don't think so. And more importantly, these kids know it's not so.
