The mission of the Arts Office (AO) is to support the arts aspirations of all NYCPS students and to ensure that we are continuously expanding our reach in support of all schools, especially those that have not historically received direct support from our office. We do this by (a) Supporting principals to incorporate the arts into schools’ core instructional mission and school wide SEL practices, and (b) Build teachers’ knowledge and capacity around effective pedagogical practices based on the Blueprint for Teaching and Learning in the Arts.
