It's interesting because it's the far left people who are defending the cutting of the fine arts program on social media OR they are blaming it on the 2 out of 5 conservative board members, which is ludicrous since...there are only two of them.
The only person on HERE that defended cutting the fine arts program is a conservative...

Ta-da! PR department! Just as useful as clay sculpting class.
Those "slick" videos on social 9 times out of 10 were made with a few hours, an iPhone, and an editing program that's part of the Office Suite available in most school districts. And the 1/10 was made by the AV class or club. We did a lot of that back in the dark ages before social media in my video editing high school class - they'd play at PTO meetings or the morning announcements (which were televised by 2002 in my high school).
Parents have a much higher expectation of communication today compared to 10 and certainly 20 years ago. Back in my day in the 90s and early 2000s, someone in the front office would photocopy flyers a few times a year and send home with us. Today, parents expect near constant communication from teachers and school districts through online portals and emails. There's more of an expectation that everything will be photographed or videoed. Likely the person in this role is also doing social media monitoring to look for threats and field complaints from people who would rather leave a comment or send an email than pick up a phone. And that's all while overall tech and administrative needs have increased.

Someone has to do the work.
We don't get constant communication. And there was a huge show at the board meeting the other night to call them out on cutting the fine arts program. They backtracked and claimed that it was a rumor, so they lied.
