Public Review of SC College- and Career-Ready Arts Standards

We’re excited to announce an opportunity for you to make your voice heard! The South Carolina College- and Career-Ready Visual and Performing Arts Proficiency Standards are now available for public review and feedback. The established cyclical review process provides an opportunity to ensure South Carolina’s high-quality standards are based on current research and proven practices to meet the varied educational needs of our state’s students. 
 
We invite everyone to review the draft document and share your insights by 5:00 p.m. on May 30, 2025. Your feedback is invaluable, and it can be submitted anonymously through our easy-to-use survey. Links to the draft document and public review survey can be found on the South Carolina Department of Education’s Visual and Performing Arts Standards webpage.
 
Following the public review period, necessary revisions will be made to the draft document. The standards will then be submitted to the State Board of Education for final approval. Source: SDE April 22, 2025 Memorandum.
