Rangers Art Club - 3rd, 4th, and 5th!

Art Club gives kids opportunity to explore beyond the Art Classroom, to become Art Lovers and appreciate creating! We work on projects that take more time like: stained glass, weaving, sewing, clay, jewelry and sculptures. I have 3 sessions per academic year to be able to service more kids. Sessions last 5-8 weeks and only one grade level at a time.

Community service (5th grade) : Everyday safety patrol members meet in the gym with coaches, gear up and head down to the front of the school to help the rangers getting in to building.

Great community service opportunity for our wonderful rangers.
