Original: Edsource: Why California Rural Schools Struggle To Expand Arts Education Despite Prop. 28 Windfall
California's Proposition 28, which channels extra funding into arts and music education, has delivered new money to schools statewide, but rural districts are finding it hard to spend it. According to Edsource reporting, these schools face a shortage of qualified arts teachers, small staffing pools and long travel distances, making it difficult to build the programs the funding was meant to support.
Why now: The Prop. 28 windfall has highlighted a gap between new state arts funding and rural schools' capacity to hire teachers and expand programs.
