Survey of artists, groups will help Missoula schools improve arts programs

Backed by national experts, Missoula County Public Schools is embarking on a survey to better evaluate the district’s K-8 arts curriculum.

The goal is to identify the gaps and the needs, and by the end of the year, have a clear plan of how to improve those things, said John Combs, MCPS director of fine arts.

On Friday, the survey will be available for artists, art organizations and people involved with arts to fill out.
