Plan your arts programFrequently Asked Questions
What is Proposition 28, and how does it support arts and music education in California schools?
Proposition 28, also known as the Arts and Music in Schools (AMS) program, provides additional funding to support and expand arts education in eligible California public schools. The initiative aims to give students greater access to arts instruction and creative learning opportunities, including visual arts, music, dance, theater, and media arts.
Does our school or district need to apply for Prop 28 funding?
Eligible schools generally do not need to submit a separate application to receive Prop 28 allocations. Funding is distributed through California's education funding system to local educational agencies (LEAs), which allocate funds to eligible school sites. Schools should contact their district to confirm their available funding and internal procedures.
Can Prop 28-funded programs take place during the regular school day?
Yes. Prop 28 funds may support eligible arts instruction during the regular school day, provided the program meets applicable funding, staffing, supervision, and instructional-time requirements. Schools should coordinate with their district to determine the appropriate program structure.
Can Prop 28 funding support in-house field trips, mini camps, or ongoing enrichment classes?
Potentially, depending on the program's content, purpose, and compliance with applicable funding requirements. Prop 28 is intended to expand arts education, so schools should prioritize offerings that provide meaningful arts instruction. Nexplore offers different enrichment formats, including in-house field trips, mini camps, and ongoing classes, which schools can explore when planning their arts education opportunities.
Are program materials and supplies included in Nexplore's offerings?
Material requirements vary by program. Nexplore can provide details about the supplies, equipment, and instructional materials associated with a proposed program so schools can understand what is included and plan accordingly.
Does Nexplore provide instructors, curriculum, and materials?
Nexplore offers in-person enrichment programs with instructors and program resources tailored to the selected offering. Depending on the program, schools can discuss instructional plans, materials, scheduling, and implementation details with the Nexplore team before requesting a proposal.
Can Nexplore customize programs to meet our school's needs and arts education goals?
Yes. Nexplore can work with schools to explore program options based on their learning objectives, grade levels, scheduling needs, and available resources. Customization may include selecting appropriate programs, organizing sessions, and planning the delivery format.
Can Nexplore provide program descriptions and cost breakdowns for district review?
Yes. Nexplore can provide program information and proposal details, including relevant descriptions, scheduling options, and pricing, to support a school's internal review and planning process. Schools should communicate any specific documentation requirements when requesting a proposal.
How can our school get started with Nexplore's Prop 28 programs?
Start by identifying your school's arts education goals, target grade levels, preferred schedule, and available budget. Then contact Nexplore to discuss relevant programs and implementation options. Our team can help you explore potential solutions and prepare information for your district's review.
