“…Given the scholarship that already exists to provide policymakers, school leaders and teachers with a checklist for better arts integration in schools (see Gullat, 2008), I will focus this final section of the article on the over-looked element of arts education that should perhaps be adopted by educators across the school who are interested in perspective transformation. Tom Anderson (2010: 3–4) speaks to the potential of art and its transformative nature:The arts are forms of communication between human beings about things that count. The important things that define culture and its values have always been presented and represented through rituals supported and framed by the arts.…”

This article argues for the need of a new, pragmatic response to claims of indoctrination in public school classrooms across the United States. While attempts at defining indoctrination and moral arguments for and against certain pedagogical practices may be worthwhile, the article maintains that claims of indoctrination, whether substantive or not, are an impediment to effective teaching, especially for educators who are primarily interested in perspective transformation. Drawing on recent scholarship regarding epiphany and transformative education, an argument is presented that teaching for epiphanic experience may be a pragmatic solution for teachers to adopt to remain effective in the classroom amid ever-increasing political polarization and professional scrutiny. After establishing this point, the article turns to arts education as a possible source for understanding the pedagogical technique that may lead to the creation of a classroom ethos for epiphany.
