A constitutional right to clogging? I can make that case!

Our constitution requires an efficient system of common schools. The Rose opinion filled in that requirement by saying such a system must "have as its goal to provide each and every child with at least the seven following capacities," and adding a list that includes "sufficient grounding in the arts to enable each student to appreciate his or her cultural and historical heritage." Here's the Celtic heritage of the Southern Highlands, and I'd happily argue that every Kentucky child is entitled to a generous helping of it.

  2. I could not agree more Susan! I’m very worried about the future of the arts in education here in the commonwealth.
