The nature of beauty is one of the most enduring and controversial themes. Beauty has traditionally been counted among the ultimate values, with goodness, truth, and justice.
Beauty is pleasure regarded as the quality of a thing. Beauty is a value, that is, it is not a perception of a matter of fact or of a relation: it is an emotion, an affection of our volitional and appreciative nature.

An object cannot be beautiful if it can give pleasure to no one. Beauty is, therefore, a positive intrinsic value; it is a pleasure.
Mere numbers and statistics cannot measure the value of beauty, creativity, and aesthetics in youth education. It is an invaluable treasure that enriches the soul and nourishes the mind.
Just as the three pillars of education - English, Math, and Science - lay the foundation for a child's intellectual growth, studying the arts cultivates their emotional intelligence, ignites their imagination, and inspires their sense of wonder.
In a world characterized by sameness and routine, beauty, creativity, and aesthetics offer a refreshing glimpse into diversity and individuality.
They awaken in young minds a love for self-expression, a thirst for knowledge, and a reverence for the unique and unconventional. Through the arts, children learn to think critically, communicate effectively, and appreciate the beauty of difference.
The study of beauty, creativity, and aesthetic is not a luxury; something to be discarded when funding is tight. On the contrary, it is an essential element of every child's educational tapestry, regardless of race, gender, or social status. For this reason, it is just as crucial as studying English, Math, and Science.
By fostering a love of the arts in our youth, we empower them to become well-rounded individuals capable of contributing to society in meaningful ways.
In the words of the great writer and philosopher Albert Camus, "The purpose of a writer is to keep civilization from destroying itself."
By nurturing the arts in our youth, we equip them with the tools they need to heal a broken world and shape a brighter future. Beauty, creativity, and aesthetics are not simply embellishments in the tapestry of education; they are essential threads that weave the fabric of a better tomorrow and should be adequately funded accordingly.
