BREAKING: AP projects California's electorate approves Proposition 28, the measure funneling massive amounts of money to fund arts and music education in the state's public schools.
"Arts and music education plays a critical role in helping children learn, develop and achieve in school and later in life," supporters wrote in the official ballot argument.
Beginning next year, the measure will require the state to provide guaranteed arts and music funding in K-12 public schools, including charter schools. "In California, school are underfunded when compared to the national average," said Dr. Fernando Guerra, a political science professor from Loyola Marymount University."You get poor kids — Latino and African Americans — getting less arts education. Most educators will tell you that is a real significant hit and it impacts other aspects of their education."
No argument against Prop 28 was submitted to the state's official voter guide, however, critics claim that it pulls funding from core education programs, like reading, writing and math.
