Volunteers Needed for Los Altos Art Docents

Are you artistically inclined? Enjoy working with children? It's time to volunteer for this school year.

[Editor's Note: Los Altos Art Docents is seeking new volunteers. An informational meeting will be held Aug. 28 at 10 am, LASD District Office]

The Los Altos Art Docents are actively seeking new recruits to help us meet the demands of our ever-growing school district. No experience with teaching? No artistic talent? No problem – we will train you! Once trained, we ask our volunteers to commit to teach once a week in the classroom during the school year. For more information, contact us at (650) 947-1195 or kdickerson@lasdschools.org.

The real reward, however comes from walking into a classroom in that iconic red apron and seeing eager faces light. It comes from seeing the pride on a child's face as she masters a new clay technique. Or the look in a child's eyes when he discovers something about a painting. Please take the time to learn more about the Training Program.

If you don't have time to volunteer as an Art Docent, volunteer to help in your child's classroom when there is an Art Docent lesson being taught. All help is appreciated.
