    ART CLUB NOTICE

     

    Hello Ola Parents and Students,

     

    It is with great joy that I announce Art Club for Ola Elementary and invite our 5th graders only to sign up!

     

    This year’s signup will be first come first serve. If you would like to apply to be a member of the Art Club, please complete the online Google form, linked below, with your parents ASAP and submit it to me by August 23rd. Should I reach the maximum of 50 total club members prior to the provided date, I will close access to the Google Form. To accommodate the 50 students, I will split club members into two groups (A and B).  Students and parents will be notified no later than August 30th as to which group you are in, and the dates of attendance. I would like for each group to start meeting in September so please be prepared to begin either September 11th or 25th, depending on which group you are in.

     

    We will meet on Wednesdays, with each group meeting once per month through April. Art club will focus on creating projects that are either too time intensive or too expensive to complete during our scheduled rotations. We may also create artwork to support our first ever Ola Theatrical performance. Students in both groups should be prepared to work hard, stay focused, and apply themselves to the best of their abilities. Students should know that Communication, Collaboration, Creativity and Critical Thinking are an expected practice. All sessions will meet directly after school until 3:45 pm on their given Wednesday dates. These dates, again, will be provided once the enrollment window is closed, and groups have been made. I will request a $10 fee for Art Club once the groups have been made as well. Please do not let the fee hold you/your student back from joining. Should you need a sponsor, please don’t hesitate to contact me. 

     

    If your student is accepted into Art Club, they will be expected to exhibit Ola COLT behaviors and follow all school, classroom, and club rules. Poor behavioral disruptions will not be tolerated and could result in being asked to stop attending meetings.

     

    Thank you for your interest in Art Club and I look forward to working with you and watching you create amazing and creative works of art. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. Go to https://forms.gle/ZgUApT8Cp1pPbUWX6 to fill out the application.
