The Arts are disappearing from American schools all across the nation. Funds are being cut from music and art budgets every day, and the youth of America are suffering. Not only are the Arts being eliminated n schools, but they are being pushed to the periphery of the American mindset. If this trend continues, the new youth of America will be culturally ignorant, oblivious to the world of music and art that surrounds them. This petition is a call to everybody who believes that music and art are core subjects, necessary to a well rounded education, and that they should be more prominently placed in the American Education system.
