Very good plugin. In my opinion there is no better bank. It has everything you need, but... It's a pity that it is not continued. Bank XP is not working properly in version 1.8 .
Sorry for my English, it's not my mother tounge.

This is a new Bank Plugin. I even asked the developer if he would add a BankCraft converter. An well he did just that. If you want a updated more than avarage Bank plugin you want this here http://www.spigotmc.org/resources/bank.3556/ You can buy item slots for your bank, store the cash like normal and has intrest on and offline as I suggested.
This was my choice for a replacement for BankCraft since when I asked for the feature requested they got added very fast and now its in working order for you BankCraft conversions.
Good Luck and Have fun!

If you are going to use this on a 1.8 server, remember that experience algorithms have changed. This causes depositing XP to not work properly as depositing uses the 1.7 calculations to determine levels seen here: https://github.com/Gurke1993/Bankcraft/blob/5e4bda0b41fed2bd47c800a9bd51a2ed1ec55b0f/src/de/hotmail/gurkilein/bankcraft/banking/ExperienceBukkitHandler.java
So if you do want a banking plugin for 1.8, this one is great for money but don't use the XP feature.

Hello Bankcraft Comments Section,
For those of you who are experiencing stack trace errors related to player tasks when using Spigot 1.8.X., you must go into the config and change "enableAutoExitSigns" to "false". The plugin will work normally without doing this, but the plugin will spam errors in the log every 3 - 5 seconds.This should make the spamming errors stop for good, but the only way to exit an interactive sign is to type "quit" or whatever is specified in the config.
To: NoHoPeLess. I will try to find the solution to your bug and post it here.

Best pitcher-catcher pairings bring Brewers success
Phoenix — A season ago, Martin Maldonado was a calming influence behind the plate for Wily Peralta, and one of a few reasons for the big right-hander's resurgence in the second half.
This season, the duo might not automatically be paired as they were starting in late June 2013.
"We've talked about it," Brewers manager Ron Roenicke said. "We really liked Maldy working with (Yovani Gallardo) on (Friday) and we talked about that a little bit. It's different depending on the needs of that pitcher.
"With Peralta last year, we thought it was the personality of Maldy being able to control the emotional guy. It changes with everybody else."
Peralta, who finished with an 11-15 record and 4.37 earned-run average in 32 starts, struggled mightily through the first two months before finally gaining traction.
He attributed some of the turnaround to Maldonado, his close friend who caught each of his final 17 starts. In addition to his game-calling and solid defensive work, Maldonado helped keep Peralta's focus — which could wane at times — with a well-timed rocket of a throw back at his knees after a pitch.
Continued development by Peralta, especially on the mental side, might convince Roenicke and his staff that they can be more flexible when putting together the lineup on days he pitches.
The continued pairing of Randy Wolf and George Kottaras a few seasons ago caused issues when the opposition started a left-hander. Best-case scenario this season may see Jonathan Lucroy catching Peralta against a left-hander and Maldonado pairing up with Matt Garza or Kyle Lohse.
"There's some guys that you'd like to match up because that pitcher will never shake off a pitch. So who's your better game-caller?" Roenicke said. "It changes year to year by the personnel you have in there.
"Our two catchers, both of them bring us something different. Maldy, I thought, was important last year with Wily. Now Wily may be at a stage this year where he doesn't have to have Maldy back there — especially if there's a left-handed pitcher going that night.
"The way Luc hits lefties, maybe it's a better idea to get Luc in there. But we need to get Wily going on a roll, and once he's on a roll I don't think it really matters who catches him."
In from the start: Spring training is different for Lohse this time around. Instead of facing college kids, he has Yasiel Puig.
Either way, he got off to a promising start Saturday against the Los Angeles Dodgers. In two innings, Lohse threw 21 strikes in 28 total pitches, including no walks, no hits and no runs.
"I would have liked to get a few more groundballs," Lohse said. "I think (I had) five fly balls. One of them was decently hit but other than that, I was on the edges of the strike zone throwing strikes. They didn't really square anything up. I had a pretty good sequence to Puig — a curveball, a sinker, a change-up.
"Stuff like that, we're not going completely game situation, but talking to (Lucroy), we were just going to go out there, mix it up, have fun, throw strikes and try to set the tone."
A year ago, Lohse didn't sign with the Brewers until the final week of spring training. Living in North Scottsdale, he pitched simulated games against local Grand Canyon University and Scottsdale Community College to stay sharp. In his training, he was surrounded by football players prepping for the NFL scouting combine. Then suddenly, he was in Milwaukee's rotation.
The 35-year-old Lohse didn't expect to pitch Saturday because earlier in the week the forecast was a 100% chance of rain. Roenicke even held an intrasquad scrimmage Friday in anticipation of Saturday's game possibly being canceled.
The rain held off and Lohse started. He forced Puig to pop up in the first inning and kept the Dodgers guessing.
A game setting beats a simulated session in the cage. Gradually, the top of the Brewers' rotation will take shape.
"I'm at the stage where I'm judging myself on how the pitches were rather than results and both were good today," Lohse said. "When I go through my bullpens, I'm not just throwing. I'm trying to get on my mind what I want to do. I would have gotten just as much out of it as I would have in a two-inning thing today, but it was good to get out there and get the game juices flowing."
A much different experience than last year.
"A little bit better hitters," Lohse said. "But facing those guys (last year) was tough because they're swinging. And I didn't want to go there and get embarrassed — it turned into, 'OK, you just took me deep foul. Now it's time to show you the slider-change-up combo.' I had a couple of those experiences."

Ever found yourself propositioned by a taxi driver with wandering eyes? Or felt up by a too-attentive physician when sitting for a basic checkup? How about auditions, ever been to a dodgy casting call and had to suck your way to a callback? Probably not, but the women of Fake Hub have - and do! In discreetly-shot HD hardcore scenes captured from the security cameras found in taxi cabs, hospital examination rooms, and every porn casting office on the planet, stunning everyday (and professional) hussies prove that the oldest profession can actually lead to promising new career developments.
Bringing together the sultriest of softcore erotica with the most convincingly intimate hardcore sex seems to have been the clear calling of acclaimed photographer Arkisi. On his Eternal Desire website, Arkisi captures the smoldering erotic auras of Europe's most stunning nude models. Also raking the fields of the Continent's hardcore performers, Eternal Desire's immaculate HD presentation is the ultimate explicit eye candy for hardcore fans, too. Take a deep breath, dear reader, because Eternal Desire is set to grab your complete attention.
I must admit that I'm disappointed. Here I thought European hardcore site Dolls Porn would dress girls up in outfits inspired by (or directly ripping off) Barbie, Polly Pocket, even Mego's awesome 12-inch Wonder Woman figures from the late-70s, but no! Dolls Porn simply finds pretty young European girls, gives them something slightly revealing or ironically conservative to wear and invites them to fuck on camera. It's a pretty basic concept this, but with girls so fresh-faced and charming, Dolls Porn is onto a winning concept if ever there was one.
All Over 30 promises many, many things: updates six days a week, HD movies and high-res photos, and a model roster devoid completely of 'skanks' - but have all those promises been kept? I, Mr. Pink, your vigilant porno advisor investigated and analyzed this MILF-porn stalwart to bring you a review loaded with revelations and straight-up real talk. All Over 30, now in its ninth year of operation, serves up an amazingly deep and detailed assortment of porn featuring not the teens and young adults you're used to beating it to, but mature-aged beauties hell bent on exploiting their sexual prime.
Where most of the 21Sextury network features cameras trained on the faces, breasts, asses, and cunts of its stunning European and American models, there's one site that aims its cameras lower than any other: Footsie Babes. Primarily concerned with foot-fondling, toe-sucking, heel-grinding, and sole-licking worship and adoration of the delicate female foot, this site also offers some hardcore pounding, often with a foot-based ejaculation! Make no mistake, though, Footsie Babes is a foot fetish site through and through.
If, like most people, you're getting pretty sick of reality, why not step into the remarkably inviting world of virtual sex with European teenage sluts! Teen Mega World Virtual Reality (or TMW VR for short) may be a fairly new arrival to the Teen Mega World network but it's already making an awesome contribution, bringing point-of-view Ultra-HD VR sex scenes that put you (via your Oculus Rift, Gear VR, or smart phone) in the fantasy fuck seat. With such hardware-reliant content, TMW VR won't be fit for everyone, but those after sexy European teens straddling their (surrogate) dicks in immersive virtual reality, already TMW VR has plenty to offer.
Cosplay is the act of dressing up as and role-playing as your favorite pop-culture icon. Be it Batman or Billy Idol, cosplayers have long been having a grand old time pretending to be someone else, someone only barely human, and now the best and bustiest pornstars in the United Kingdom are getting in on the act. Cosplay Babes, part of the Stiffia network, showcases foxy costumed sluts as they revel in their new fantastical identity. Hell, some of them get so turned on in form-fitting spandex they don't even wait for a partner, staring into the camera lens as they pleasure themselves for your entertainment. Cosplay Babes is your every superhero, sci-fi, and fantasy fiction wet dream come true.
Need a network that combines European erotica with American hardcore while tossing in German, Portuguese, Spanish, British, and Italian-made smut for good measure? If so, think Stiffia. Not just a peculiar name, Stiffia is also a peculiar network. Home to 23 exclusive sites including Harmony Vision, Cosplay Babes, and Lust Cinema, Stiffia delivers a powerful pornographic punch - and often in brilliant 1080p HD, to boot! This porn network is by no means perfect, though, so heed the following missive before you rush into a Stiffia membership.

Darkness over the top - but in a good way
Justin Hawkins, frontman for British band The Darkness, had some choice words to say in a Journal Sentinel interview for those who think his glam rock group is a joke.

First Stage's ambitious 'Promised Land' is a dream deferred
Ruth, an African-American girl in her early teens, is lost. Her father is long gone. Her overworked mother is rarely around. Her beloved brother is dead. It's 1969, and, while Ruth should be in school, she is watching TV instead.
In "To the Promised Land" - unveiled by First Stage Children's Theater on Friday night - playwright Jonathan Gillard Daly links Ruth's struggles with another coming-of-age story that unfolded in Milwaukee, where a young Golda Meir underwent her own journey of self-discovery.

What our clients are saying
We have so much fun every time we do this. Recommended!
We love renting a boat and going out together as a family as a summer activity. It is so much fun getting out on the ocean, and the kids can't get enough!
This is the only boat rental I will use. At other places I have not had good experiences — rude customer service, boats that weren't in great shape. Here, I never have had a single problem. Boats are safe and functional — and clean. Staff are friendly.
I rent regularly from LI Boat Rentals. Their boats are in great condition and have clearly been well cared for. Any time I have a question, there's always someone eager to help me. If you enjoy fishing but don't have your own boat, this is the place to come.
My brother-in-law was in town and we wanted to do something fun with him. He'd never been to LI, and we thought the best way to see it would be a cruise on the water. We rented a boat here after being referred by a friend, and we had a blast out there! It was just as exciting for us to get a different perspective on the island as it was for him. We don't fish, but these boats would be perfect for that I imagine.

JERUSALEM, Israel -- The fifth meeting between Israeli and Palestinian negotiators will be the last, the Palestinian Authority's official Ma'an news agency reported on Wednesday.
According to the report, P.A. President Mahmoud Abbas says Israel's insistence on addressing "marginal" security issues and "administrative arrangements" have nothing to do with the peace process.
That issue played out at Saturday's meeting, when senior Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat refused to let Brig.-Gen. Assaf Orion, head of the IDF's strategic planning division, read a summary of the issues, Ha'aretz reported.
According to Abbas, the talks in Amman have yielded nothing new and will be the last opportunity to restart direct talks.
Hanna Amirah, a member of the Palestinian Liberation Organization's executive committee, blamed Israel for the impasse, saying the Netanyahu government isn't looking to "achieve any progress in the peace process with the Palestinian Authority."
Jordan agreed to host the meetings, which it co-sponsored with the European Union.
EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton arrived in Israel on Tuesday to try to convince the parties to restart direct talks before the January 26 deadline set by the Quartet -- the U.S., E.U., U.N. and Russia.

Swiff debuts mobile point of sale technologies in Thailand in push towards a cashless world
World's first white label mobile commerce solution launched with Bank of Ayudhya to be real game changer for the future of mobile payments
Swiff, the global innovator of secure mobile commerce solutions, today announced the world's first complete live implementation of an end-to-end, secure mobile point of sale (mPOS) solution.
The partnership with Thailand's leading consumer finance bank, Bank of Ayudhya (BAY) and the Swiff platform will allow the bank to provide their customers with new retail opportunities made possible by the flexibility and low cost of Mobile POS.
"This is an exciting time for the payment industry, with technology being the bedrock for enhanced mobility, payments, convenience and productivity improvements," said Jerome Cle, CEO and Founder of SCCP Group. "We're ready to empower banks worldwide withtechnologies that enable truly secure mobile strategies, allowing them to stay competitive in the m-commerce revolution and take back market share from aggregators in that market."
"Our strongest differentiator lies in our ability to seamlessly integrate into any acquiring bank, allowing the bank to rapidly provide an mPOS service to existing and new merchants. On the commercial front, we are opening doors for banks to achieve a richer level of engagement with their customers. Increasingly, people are changing their payment habits and are more willing to use cashless systems through mobile devices to do banking, money transfer, and commerce activities," said Erik Holst-Roness, Executive Vice-President of SCCP Group.
Philip Tan, Head of E-Business of Bank of Ayudhya said, "Swiff is a strong component ofour mobile strategy in the payment chain, especially with its bank-level authentication and identification technologies which enable easy and secure payment transactions. Through this partnership, we now have a new way to engage with our customers, allowing us to grow and build customer relationships and provide a service that can help our customers become increasingly mobile in their payment processes."
Swiff was first launched by SCCP Group in Singapore since March 2012 and plans are underway for further bank partnerships to be developed in growth markets for the US, Europe, and Asia Pacific.

text: SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. He couldnt walk for three months.One surgery rebuilt his ankle. Another removed the screws. When he returned to baseball, no single activity was pain-free. No amount of treatment could take away the soreness, the stiffness, the unpredictable breaking of scar tissue.As for the mental scars, they are as raised and raw as ever. He cant forget or forgive the baserunner who vaporized him on that awful night.This is not Buster Poseys story. This belongs to Todd Jennings.Nobody wants to sign an injured catcher, said Jennings, a former Giants prospect and second-round pick out of Long Beach State. Im going to these open tryouts and some of these people have no business being there. Had one with the Dodgers last week. Did really well, too. Im in the best shape of my life, finally feeling 100 percent.But its hard. Its hard when nobodys seen you play in four years.Jennings, like everyone else, saw replay after replay of Poseys collision on May 25. It began with a fly ball and a throw from the outfield. Posey dropped right fielder Nate Schierholtzs one-hop heave. Florida Marlins pinch runner Scott Cousins, as if shot from a sling, delivered a targeted, shoulder-to-shoulder blow.Posey had fallen to his knees. He was a sitting duck.Same exact thing, dude, Jennings said.For Jennings, AT&T Park was Rosenblatt Stadium in Omaha. His Scott Cousins was a blocky, Triple-A outfielder named Mitch Maier. It was May 2, 2008, and the first inning. Fresno left fielder Justin Leone caught a fly ball and heaved his throw. It was up the line.Jennings fell to his knees. He was a sitting duck.Both plays were sacrifice flies. Both times, the catcher paid it.Both times, Schierholtz was the right fielder.I dont recall all the specifics, said Schierholtz, of that cool night in Nebraska. But Ill never forget the hit.It was worse than Poseys collision. Maier was bigger than Cousins. Jennings was smaller than Posey.Absolutely blown up, Schierholtz said. It did not look good. It was very, very similar to Busters collision. Obviously, we didnt have a replay over and over. But he lowered his shoulder. He got killed. Complete yard sale, stuff flying everywhere.It was hard to watch that happen to a friend.This spring, Schierholtz and his teammates are watching with hope and optimism as Posey straps on his gleaming gear, catches bullpens, takes batting practice and runs the bases. He remains the golden child of the organization, the first star position player drafted and developed since the days of Will Clark and Matt Williams. He is expected to bring his lamp to the cleanup spot and guide a league-worst offense out of darkness.But more than nine months after the collision, Posey is not healed. Not yet. And nobody can understand his pain better than Jennings.I know, said Jennings, who tore an MCL in his knee in addition to multiple ankle ligaments in his crash. Hes going to find its tough mentally more than anything. You want to come back and perform, but the ankle and the whole situation hinders you from doing what you normally can.At where he is now, nine months, hes just going to be real, real stiff and its going to affect his performance because the ankle is pretty critical for being a catcher. Hes not going to be as mobile blocking balls and stuff like that. Your range of motion, you just dont have it because of all the scar tissue. No matter how much you do to loosen it up, its still there.Hell be all right, but this year will not be easy. Hell have to be patient have to be.Posey knows what lies ahead. He spent the offseason working with Giants physical therapist Tony Reale, who has remained in contact with Jennings. Plenty of NFL players have recovered from three torn ankle ligaments. Jennings is one of few test cases for a catcher.The big questions to be answered this spring, beginning Friday when Posey plays for the first time in 288 days: How much can he catch? Is 100 games too much? Or 120? Or will his ankle tolerate much less? On days he doesnt catch, should be start at first base? Or will his ankle require complete days of watching, powerless and jacketed, from the dugout?Jennings cannot provide a perfect comparison. Posey is more than nine months removed from the injury. Jennings was barely six months out when he went to play winter ball in Mexico.But I know if he plays on it every day for two months, hes going to be done, Jennings said. It was killing me after three weeks. So if Im running their team, Id give him just three or four games a week to start, at least for the first month or two.Posey wont be in the lineup every day this season. But hell spend all 162 in the trainers room. Dave Groeschner has prepared Posey for that reality. Itll be hour after dull hour on the table, alternating ice and heat.Everyone wants him to be perfect, but hes going to have bouts of soreness all year long, said Groeschner, the Giants head athletic trainer. He knows that. Weve talked about that. Its just about trying to manage it as best we can, knowing that hes going to play a lot.The nice thing about spring training is it can be much more controlled than the regular season. Were trying to add things in incrementally to see how he tolerates it, how he feels, and so far, its been good.Will he get tired of staring at those ceiling tiles in the trainers room?He already is trust me, Groeschner said, with a faint smile. This year its going to be a necessary evil. We know he doesnt want to be in there, but hes dealing with it pretty well.Jennings is still dealing with the fallout. Its hard to forget that night in Omaha when its your last in affiliated baseball.After Mexico that winter, Jennings was invited to major league spring training with the Giants in 2009. Still sore but managing his knee and ankle, he reported early with the other catchers. Posey was in his first big league camp and Jennings remembered taking a liking to the kid.We got along well, Jennings said. Wed go down in the cages and sit on the pitching machines, hang out and talk.The first week of camp wasnt yet over when Jennings was taking part in a throwing drill. He felt something pop in his elbow. Tommy John surgery. Another 12 months, gone.This time, nobody barreled him over. His wind got knocked out nonetheless.Jennings rehabbed his arm on the Giants tab, but the club released him in the spring of 2010. The organization had too many other catchers. Hed been passed up on the chart.So Jennings found independent ball. In one season, he was a Newark Bear, a Long Island Duck, a Bridgeport Bluefin. He was traded twice in a week. The bank took his condo. When he called his agent, seeking intercession, he couldnt get a call returned.Last year, he found a home with the Fargo-Moorhead Redhawks in the American Association. They treated him well there. If the Dodgers dont call, he plans to go back now a 30-year-old catcher amid part-time plumbers and hangers-on, still chasing the dream.He keeps in touch with Schierholtz, Sergio Romo and a few other ex-teammates. He was thrilled when the Giants won the World Series in 2010, even if he had to watch with hands pressed against the glass.He honestly believes he has what it takes to reach the major leagues.I just did four moths of combat training, he said. Im in the best shape of my life. Im throwing as good as ever, so why should I stop playing?Therein lies the hope. Jennings said Poseys ankle wouldnt limit him forever.Its gonna take a solid year, but its gonna heal, Jennings said. It took me at least a year to be 100 percent and not feel anything to be able to run and cut. He might start off slow, but Id expect him to be 100 percent after the All-Star break, barring any setbacks. And in the long run, with all the rehab, its going to be a lot stronger. Now my leg and knee are stronger than they ever were because of exercises I kept doing.But its mental, man. He went though the ultimate mental test. Hey, I applaud him for that. Im sure he has a good family too to stand by him, because its frustrating to watch on TV and not be a part of it. Its hard for me being in Arizona and not having a team to play for.One other detail from that night in Omaha: Mitch Maier was called out.Jennings held onto the baseball. He holds onto it still.When Jennings was thrashing around in pain and shock, his left leg numb and the rest of his body throbbing, Maier did not do what Cousins did. He did not reach back to offer a gentle hand on the shoulder. He made no contact whatsoever.Mitch Maier never called, never texted, nothing, Jennings said. That still eats me. I havent played a game in affiliated ball since that day. Thats why maybe I think (Posey) might have handled that the wrong way by not accepting an apology. But thats his decision.Make no mistake. Jennings isnt questioning Poseys character. He has nothing but admiration for him. By the time Posey guts through this season, Jennings expects to admire him all the more.He knows Posey's story. It belongs to both of them.It makes you, in the long run, a better person, Jennings said. Buster is a great kid with a good head on his shoulders and I think youll see hell be even better after this. Hes going to come out hungry. You watch, hes going to get on some of these other guys.Hell be a better person. Youll see. I guarantee it.

This review is from: Cuisinart DCC-450BK 4-Cup Coffeemaker with Stainless-Steel Carafe, Black
Pros: This coffee maker replaced an OLDER model I used for about 5 yrs. Cuisinart GREATLY IMPROVED the product even though it looks the same. The spout no longer drips! The on-off switch is easier to operate. Hopefully Cuisinart will continue to manufacture 'cause when this one give out, I want another one. It's small and if you travel it takes up little space. It can use paper filter or those coffee "tea bags" and still make good coffee.

The Evolution Institute: A Think-Tank That Doesn't Just Think:
The Brexit vote caught most elite observers by surprise and has spurred a flurry of talk of further possible defections from the EU. But one person who was not so surprised was Peter Turchin, an evolutionary anthropologist at the University of Connecticut, author most recently of "Ultrasociety: How 10,000 Years of War Made Humans the Greatest Cooperators on Earth."
Although Turchin, like most other observers, had expected Brexit to fail narrowly, his attention was focused primarily on a strikingly different confluence of background trends at work, leading him to expect an ongoing increase in dis-integrative processes across Europe. So Turchin's surprise was qualitatively different than that of others. "I didn't expect that my prediction of the EU's demise would be endorsed so quickly," he tweeted after the vote, linking a blog post, "Will the European Union Survive its 60th Anniversary?" Turchin sees EU disintegration as almost a certainty in the near term, but believes there's a chance to start over, on a sounder footing, if the right lessons are learned. And he believes it's a vital enterprise, not just for Europe, but for all of us.
In the Science of Civilizations, Brexit Is the European Union's Reckoning
On June 23, millions of United Kingdom citizens will vote to leave the European Union. And millions of others will vote to remain. If the leavers win, the UK and EU will begin a methodical divorce that many analysts expect to destabilize the nation and the continent.
All of which might happen eventually, no matter what the UK decides. The so-called Brexit vote is the culmination of years of growing disillusionment—mostly from older and working class Britons—with the European Union's trade agreements and open border policies. It is also part of a larger trend. Across Europe, populist parties have been fighting to regain sovereignty from the EU. The problems of each country, and of the European Union itself, are contemporary, specific, and complicated. But they fit into a model that some scientists have recognized as symptomatic of a civilization on its way towards disintegration.
The European Union began after World War II as set of trade agreements between five countries. Nations with close business ties, the thinking went, would probably be less likely turn squabbles into wars. Over 60 years, the compact has grown into a proper government across 28 member nations, regulating all those things that governments regulate: economy, labor, environment, migration. "I think of the European Union as an empire," says Peter Turchin, an evolutionary anthropologist at the University of Connecticut. "The EU is unusual because it was constructed without conquest, but in terms of functionality it is not unlike other historical examples." Read the rest of the article at Wired

A recent report from the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) suggests that arts education can help narrow the achievement gap that exists between low-income students and their more advantaged peers. But new data from the federal government suggests that low-income students are less likely to have access to arts education than their higher-income peers.
Certainly arts education is important for its own sake. But in a time of tough budget choices, arts education advocates must speak to its tangible benefits, which the NEA report clearly does. By nearly every indicator studied, a student from a low-socioeconomic (SES) background with a high-arts educational experience significantly outperformed peers from a low-arts, low-SES background, closing (and in some cases eliminating) the gap that often appears between low-SES students and their more advantaged peers.
And not just the standardized test score gap. The report does show that low-SES eighth grade students who have a history of high arts engagement have higher science and writing scores on the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) than those who do not. Such high school students had better GPAs than their low-arts, low-SES peers (and in some instances, than all students). But I was more impressed with some of the other outcomes the study showed. Consider:
The benefits of arts education were not exclusive to low-SES students. There were significant improvements in civic engagement in both high- and low-SES students with high-arts experiences.
Of course, this study showed correlation, not causation, on all these results. Yet it is encouraging that the benefits of high-arts environments appear especially strong for disadvantaged students, offering a possible strategy that schools can use to address their achievement gaps.
Which is one reason that the new data from the US Department of Education is disappointing. While I haven't fully dissected the report, the Secretary himself pointed out that it was a "good news, bad news story." The good news: It appears that the arts curriculum has not narrowed as dramatically as feared in the wake of No Child Left Behind and a culture that judges educational quality on standardized reading and math scores. Compared to a decade ago, both music and visual arts classes are still widely offered. However, the percentage of both elementary and high schools offering visual arts has decreased a bit. And as Education Week's Erik Robelen points out, dance and drama at the elementary level "have all but disappeared."
But the most disturbing aspect of the data was the differences it revealed in the arts education available to students based on the wealth of their peers. Some of the discrepancies have improved over time – for example, Robelen points out that while currently 95% of low-poverty elementary schools offer weekly music instruction compared to 93% of high-poverty elementary schools, just a decade ago it was 95% to 82%. However, others gaps are widening. In the 1999-2000 school year, 100% of high-poverty secondary schools offered music, but just 81% did in the 2008-09 school year. Ninety-three percent of high-poverty secondary schools offered visual arts in 1999-2000; just 80% did in 2008-09.
And unaddressed in these data are issues of quality, though I might offer a guess based on some of the findings. For example, just 59% of high-poverty elementary schools have a dedicated room with special equipment as the primary space for visual arts instruction, compared to 76% of low-poverty elementary schools. It may be that a school with a dedicated arts room can offer higher-quality lessons in painting, ceramics and the other visual arts than one where a teacher must carry supplies from room to room and perhaps lacks easy access to water for clean-up and adequate storage space for completed projects.
The overall message I took from these two reports: As a group, the students most likely to benefit from an arts-rich educational experience are less likely to get it. And that needs to change.

I fully support giving arts education to all students, not only the ones from low SES background. However, the painful question is, do we have enough funds to go around, to let students attend a lesson that has no direct impact on their academic grades? Sadly, the answer is no, and our leadership constantly cuts spending on areas they deem to be unimportant.
Art education can play a major role in a child's academic and social development. By offering art education in the school system, all children get a chance to stimulate their imaginations, as well as their cognitive and problem-solving skills. After, they have to think through how they are going to make their imagined creations real. These problem-solving skills enable them to think creatively in other situations, which can boost their academic results.
I can relate to that. Growing up, I was the low income student, and it is true, we could not afford to buy our own expensive instruments to compete with the more privileged kids. And in my neighborhood I don't matter how good you are with your instrument, if you can afford a 15watt marshal amp then I'm sorry, a kid who only knows 4 chords will outshine you with his Gibson Les Paul and 100watt amplifier. At least that was my case. But I do agree, art education plays a big role in a students life. It's like a form of escape especially when you don't have a good environment to live in. Just my two cents.
Art education is as important as academic learning. It broadens student's horizons and improves their cognitive skills. Most of the times, it requires instruments, equipments and gadgets to practice what students are actually learning but the sad part is that for learners with low socioeconomic status, it's hard to afford such tools. So, all we need here is to divert some attention of our officials to make in-depth art involvement certain for all students for better effects on their academic learning.
