KEY WORDS: art, morality, students, school program.

ABSTRACT:
This paper aims to present a concise description of the great impact which art can exercise in upbringing and educating morally good students. Both morality and art are viewed as free educators. The manuscript is devoted to elucidating a close relationship between morality and arts that has to be further developed and utilized in the everyday school’s schedule. Subjects as drawing and music is insufficient. The school program is of great need for including dancing and regular movie-going events. The more artistic the school program is, the better creative, free, and talented, as well as more moral students will be raised.
