In school programs
Many elementary schools provide art programs within the school day as part of an exploratory wheel, or have their teachers integrate art through core subject area instruction. Many schools also offer art-focused extended learning opportunities through after school and summer/winter break programs.
Middle and high schools offer art programs in visual arts, drama, dance and/or music. These programs help to provide students with a well-rounded education for individual growth. The Department's graduation requirements allow students to explore this coursework by requiring two credits in either world languages, fine arts and career and technical education, as well as six credits in any subject area. High schools also offer art programs through their learning centers in STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts and math), performing arts and music.
The Department also offered 20 interscholastic sports each school year and recently launched an intermediate athletics program for middle schools.
Out of school programs
The Out of School Network consists of state and federally-funded, high-quality programs that link learning from the regular school day to the out of school time space, thereby increasing student outcomes such as behavior, attendance and coursemarks. The programs occur outside of the regular school day for students in grades K-12: evenings, weekends, holidays and intersessions, including summer. Schools may offer one or more of the following: the Nita M. Lowey 21st Century Community Learning Centers (21CCLC), Afterschool Plus (A+) Program, Resources for Enrichment, Athletics, Culture and Health (REACH) and Uniting Peer Learning, Integrating New Knowledge (UPLINK).
