While it does take 90% of the budget, the marching band is about the only real competitive event band nerds get. That, and it can definitely be just as high quality (if you train for hours a day, that is).
Don't get me started.
As a member of several public school fine arts groups, I know the value they have and how positively influential they are to developing children.
My question is: how will you ensure that fine arts (bands, choral groups, theatre, et cetera) both remain in public schools and are sufficiently well-funded to function at a high level?
This question is directed to both candidates.
