NDEO's K-12 Dance Education Data Collection Project for FRSS
.....help identify K-12 schools in the US that offer Dance to their students! 

 

 
  
 
Help NDEO build a detailed database to accurately capture contact and demographic information for K-12 schools in our country that offer dance education (in any form). NDEO will use this information in Fall 2013 to send out an FRSS-type survey (Fast Response School Survey) for Dance Specialists.
  
 
 
  

  

 

 

 
 
 
The Government typically does FRSS surveys across all academic subjects including the arts. However, the majority of arts' respondents are for music and visual arts. We believe that dance is underrepresented because, only targeting a sample of schools, the surveys often end up in schools that do not offer a dance curriculum. In an effort to improve out national voice, NDEO, along with a Phd candidate, will be implementing an FRSS-type survey in schools specifically known to have a dance curriculum. We need your help to identify schools with dance to ensure maximum participation!
  
   
 
Our goal is to accurately identify over 2,000 K-12 schools in the US that offer dance.
  
So, if you teach in a K-12 schools, please fill out this form. If you sent in your school information previously via our online forums, please resubmit your information using the K-12 Data Collection Form. If you are not a K-12 dance educator but know of a K-12 schools in your community that has dance, please send them the form. They do not have to be NDEO members to fill out the form. Feel free to post the request in social media.
