ACA II Electives

ACA II
02/01/2012

Dear Parents,

As you know, one of the most important parts of our school is our Elective Program. This year we will have 4th through 7th graders participating in this program Monday through Wednesday from 2:05-2:55 pm. Below is a list of electives that our students would like to see taught at our school. If there are any electives listed that you can help us out by teaching that would be fantastic. We rely on parent volunteers to be able to give our students a wide variety of choices and opportunities for electives, so if there are any things you are passionate about that you would like to share with the kids we would love to have you come and share them.

Please let Miss Basso (acaiibasso@gmail.com) know as soon as possible – no later than Friday February 3rd, 2012, which electives you can help us with and which days of the week are most convenient for you. Even if you do not feel comfortable teaching one, you are always welcome to come and assist. Please specify when you reply if you are willing to teach or assist a teacher in the electives. Please remember that teaching an elective is a wonderful way to not only be involved with our school and support your child’s education, but also to fulfill some of the required volunteer hours.

Thank you!
