This model Ohio competency-based arts program connects the four arts (dance, drama/theater, music, visual art) to their educational, historical, personal, and social contexts in order to bring relevance and understanding to all students. The document is intended to provide guidance to local Ohio school districts in creating their own arts programs. The book provides suggested performance objectives, suggested instructional objectives, recommended strategies for assessment, and a recommended program of interventions services.
