The Enrichment Program gives third through fifth graders an opportunity to explore in depth a subject of special interest to them. The beauty of the program s model is that although the final project is stressed, it is the process of exploration in teams or individually that rewards the students experience. The groups are small so the children get more individual attention. Parents are an invaluable component of this program, either as regular facilitators or one-time guest lecturers or volunteers. Enrichment units have included math games, telescope building, Native American studies, acting and performance, clay sculpture, dance, computerized music, fifth-grade yearbook, journalism, photography, architecture, party planning, sewing/clothing design, science, cooking/cookbook design, fine arts/self-portraiture and advanced art. Reading intervention teacher Eileen Eiger coordinates this program.

Enrichment is on Fridays at 2:10 pm for ten weeks beginning November 3rd.

PARENTS CHECK OUT THESE EXCITING ENRICHMENT CLUSTERS! Do you have a special interest in any of these topics? If you would like to assist a teacher each Friday or if you are interested in coming in as a guest speaker/presenter, please contact Eileen Eiger, our Enrichment Coordinator at the school or call her at 330-9275 (press #6 for her voicemail).
