I want art and music to stay in my school
I strongly believe that the art teacher and the music teacher should stay at Lions Park Elementary School, Fairview Elementary School, Westbrook School and Lincoln Middle School.
The first reason the art teacher and the music teacher should stay is art gives children a chance to be creative. In math and reading you can't really be creative and make something new.
My second reason ... is in music children can learn about people and their culture. In art you can also learn about people and their culture. Learning about different cultures is important, it can help us get along better with different kinds of people.
My third reason is music involves a lot of math so if you keep the music teacher kids will be learning more math too.
My last reason is music and art gives children a break from all the learning and sitting in their classrooms. If there is no art and music children will not like school as much. You probably do not want children to not like school, I know I would not like school if there was not art and music.
In conclusion, I strongly believe the art teacher and music teacher should stay. Please keep the art and music teachers in District 57.
