Welcome to Eastern Suffolk BOCES Arts-in-Education services, where we are committed
to the role that the arts play in the education of the whole child.
The arts and artists presented through Arts-in-Education programs promote personal
growth and community understanding by enabling students to process and create meaning
from what they learn about people, events and places. Educationally, the arts have
a place in the classroom not only for their own sake, but also as rich, relevant
and integral connections to classroom work that support as well as align with and
enliven core curriculum.
There are also programs that do not address arts standards that help make meaning
for our students. These Exploratory Enrichment opportunities are available through
our office.
