Yes. The No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 2001, which was signed into federal law in January 2002, defines core subject areas as English, Reading/Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, Foreign Languages, Civics and Government, Economics, ARTS, History, and Geography. Because the arts are CORE under NCLB, they are therefore eligible for Federal funding.
