They are so important in the development of many life skills; nurturing creative thinking, team work, individual growth. Children should be given options at school that they are passionate about, this helps them keep interested in school. My hope is that the fine arts programs are not only always offered as part of the school curriculum but keep getting better and better. The PVA program @ Central memorial (Calgary) is great

Today's youth need more hands-on work to prepare for jobs in trades and technology. Many young people see no purpose in even attending Junior High because school work is irrelevant if they want to be hairdressers, mechanics.
Reared on TV, texting and cell phones they need to receive information in a similar manner. Those who do wish to pursue an academic route can make that choice, but better options for the majority are needed.

If only you could understand how important and educational all types of music/art is to the growth and development of a child.

Does Finland prescribe standardized testing? Collectively teachers have a lot of understanding and insights. What do politicians really have to offer as to what should go on in any classroom let alone the bigger picture? Yes some make token visits, read redundant, dated reports and meet to meet,. Save us the time and tax money and cut at the top stating with them, not the classroom level.

In particular, I object strongly to the closure of inner city schools such as McCauley (recently renovated) in the recent round of closures. These schools are vital to their surrounding communities. If we want to bring more families into these areas of the city and serve the families already living there, we need to provide them with decent access to properly funded schools.

Greater emphasis on how we teach these students is key to their future success.
