Seeking Art Enrichment Classroom Lead Parent Volunteers!

 

Use the form to express interest in being the Art Enrichment lead for your child’s class. The AE Committee will then select the lead for each class and notify you directly if you have been chosen. There are six sessions (six artists) that are presented each school year. The Lead is responsible for coordinating art enrichment parent volunteers for your child’s homeroom teacher.  

 

Minimal prep required, besides a one-hour orientation (generally held at 9:15 AM on Wednesdays) and 1-2 hours on the day of the session. No Art Experience Necessary! Being the AE lead is a fun way to be involved in your child’s classroom.
