| Summary: | A RECENT SURVEY of Christian school administrators in British Columbia reveals problems in their reliance on secularized foundations for educational theory, an unbiblical or narrow understanding of the nature of knowledge and experience, and a suspicion of the arts by the Protestant Christian community. In spite of the vast body of apologetics arguing for maintaining the visual arts in schools, there is surprisingly little literature addressing why Christian schools, in particular, might question the hierarchy of a curriculum that suppresses the visual arts entirely or limits its access to a small group of “talented‘ students. |
