Abstract
As school partnerships with community organizations move from a stop-gap measure to the primary vehicle for delivering arts education to many of the United States' students, it is necessary to establish standards to guide the growth of this new sector. This study explores common success factors including: sustained involvement, correlation with curriculum standards, collaboration with teachers and school administrators, and regular evaluation systems, that have been shown to be present in successful supplemental arts education programs delivered by outside partner arts organizations. Many benefits have been attributed to arts education, but in order to achieve positive outcomes, a majority of these success factors must be present. These factors serve as the foundation for developing a rubric to measure the quality of supplemental arts programs. This rubric then becomes the basis for a case study analyzing the effectiveness of Pennsylvania Ballet's Delphi Project and exploring how these success factors develop.
