Etiwanda School District has implemented a comprehensive Transitional Kindergarten through Grade 8 Visual and Performing Arts (VAPA) program using Proposition 28: Arts and Music in Schools funding. The program provides standards-aligned instruction in visual arts, media arts, and performing arts/theater through a rotational model that reaches all 13,619 students across 17 school sites, with 11 FTE certificated arts teachers funded by Prop 28. The governing board approved the 2025-26 Prop 28 annual plan on 2026-07-23, confirming ongoing investment to expand arts instruction rather than supplant existing programs.This represents a multi-year, grant-backed initiative where the district will likely need curriculum materials, instruments, media arts technology, performance equipment, and professional development to support and refine the new model. Vendors in arts curriculum, EdTech, and performance resources can engage around helping the district deepen media arts integration, support public showcases, and sustain the Saturday Art Festival as the program matures each year.

Program includes an annual Saturday Art Festival and public showcases at Open House events; serves both general education and special education students.
