Measuring Up: New Hampshire Arts Education Data Project – October 2010

Introduction

In 2008, Quadrant Arts Education Research, on behalf of the New Hampshire State Department of Education and the New Hampshire State
Council on the Arts, began a study of the level of arts education in New Hampshire public schools. The principals of all 484 public schools,
including charter schools, were asked to complete an on-line survey to provide detailed information on arts education in his or her school.
The on-line survey captured numerous details on arts education, more specifically:
• Types of arts courses (curricular and extra-curricular) offered, by grade level (for music, visual arts, media arts, theater, and dance);
• Number of students enrolled in arts courses;
• Number of hours in a year dedicated to arts education, by arts discipline;
• Certification level of teachers providing arts education;
• Non-salary budgets allocated to arts education;
• Use of visiting artists, field trips, and artists-in-residence;
• Professional development offerings to art and general classroom teachers;
• Policies in place regarding arts education (adoption of standards, high school arts graduation requirements, etc.).

A total of 153 schools completed a questionnaire, which is a 32% response rate. A total of 84,840 students were represented by responding
schools.
