Across Orange County local alliances are working to support school districts’ strategic arts plans to insure that every student has access to a quality, standards-based arts education.

Each Local Arts Education Alliance believes:

• Excellent arts and cultural resources can partner with us to create outstanding schools for all of our children.
• Even in tough economic times, Orange County schools must provide arts education
