What State Education Agency Directors of Arts Education does
Mission
The mission of seadae is to support the professional effectiveness of individual members and provide a collective voice for leadership on issues affecting arts education
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
In 2025, seadae piloted the customized arts learning (cal) toolkit based on the 2024 implementation plan. Cal was built by seadae in 2023. This toolkit is designed to guide teachers in developing authentic arts instructional approaches intended to recognize the diverse traditions and experiences of their students. The organization also maintained the online toolkit platform for the cal toolkit, making it easily accessible to teachers across the nation. Having conducted an internal evaluation of the cal toolkit, seadae analyzed and revised the toolkit materials and resources and engaged seadae member training on the cal toolkit. Trainings were designed to guide members on school-level implementation of the toolkit. Final reporting of the cal toolkit pilot took place in denver during the seadae symposium. Teacher professional learning and implementation sessions have been held at the national art education association conference, national association for music education conference, and the national dance education organization conference.
