About Education

Education and participation in the arts, science and history are vital to the development of our children and our communities. Through advocacy, research, partnerships and professional development, ASC strives to provide and secure more resources and support for education in Charlotte-Mecklenburg.

ASC views its role in education as an advocate, a funder and a voice. In these roles, the organization seeks to provide educational content and resources to serve teachers, students and other learners. Additionally, ASC actively engages in dialogue about the importance of education and how essential it is to our cultural community.

Announcing ASC Assessment & Plan for community-based arts, science & history education offerings in Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools

We are pleased to share with you news of a project to ensure community-based arts, science and history education offerings are as aligned as possible with current and projected needs of the more than 130,000 students in Charlotte-Mecklenburg schools.  Launched by ASC in September with assistance from a national consulting firm, this six-month project will include a comprehensive inventory and assessment of all community based education offerings.  It will also include a snap shot of school-based needs in each of the district’s 176 buildings.
