Art Docent Program

The Art Docent Program is a wonderful opportunity
to get involved with your child’s education and to participate at school.

There’s a lot in store for the Art Docent Program
this year including some revisions to our original
curriculum, Art Fair and Art’s Week, the permanent
5th grade art project, marbling and much, much more.

What is an Art Docent?

As a volunteer through the PTA, the art docent devotes about 1 hour of time each month with their child’s class to:

View an art print.
Facilitate a discussion about the print.
Follow up with an art project related to the print.

All the materials and curriculum are provided and an Art Docent training seminar is available for those who wish to learn more about being an art docent.

How do I become an Art Docent?

There will be plenty of opportunities to sign up for this program:

Back-to-school BBQ
Curriculum night
With your child's teacher
With Kevin McPherson, our Art Docent Program Chairperson

If you have been an art docent in the past and you are planning to participate this year, please let Kevin know as soon as possible and be sure to let your child’s teacher know.

How do I learn more?

All previous art docents, and those who are interested in finding out more about the program should attend the Art Docent Orientation Meeting. This meeting is important to attend to learn about the new art docent curriculum.
