The short explanation of this alert was:
On June 1, Dr. Arlene Ackerman began as the new CEO of the School District of Philadelphia. As the CEO, Dr. Ackerman will be instrumental in getting the arts back into Philadelphia public schools. Please email her and urge her to support the district Arts Policy that will go before the School Reform Comission later this month. The policy mandates that the arts are acknowledged as a core subject area, and that a sequential and standards-based arts curriculum is implemented at all levels for music, art, theater, and dance by highly qualified teachers and administrators. Furthermore, the policy states that ongoing measurement of student learning in the arts will ensure compliance with state mandates.
