Attend periodic meetings with representatives from other schools to study and prepare reports about educational concerns submitted by members of the community. The Jefferson Chess Club is an example of an enrichment opportunity. Proceeds from this major fall fundraiser are used to subsidize class trips and to fund the Cultural Arts program at Jefferson. This event typically takes place the same day as the Holiday Gift Shop. Many volunteers are needed to staff the games and crafts along with the bake sale, kitchen and prize redemption tables.
