The Volunteer Program engages parents and other community members in meaningful ways that support and enhance student learning. Understanding that everyone cannot be involved in the school during the school day, we look for opportunities to involve parents and community members at varying times. For our Salute to the Arts, volunteers whose vocation or avocation is in the field of art or music present a series of demonstrations related to the arts. Students and their parents visit as many presentations as they wish during the evening. The family learning night, held on a Friday night, includes dinner in the cafeteria.
Students act as waiters, guides, and greeters during the night.
They decorate the walls with original artwork depicting artists and musicians whom they have studied in art and music classes. The cafeteria becomes The Artists' Caf . Graphic artist - explore how a design idea becomes a final advertising promotion. The presenters were parents, aunts, cousins, and grandparents of students in the school. Other presenters included a retired teacher, a local businessperson, and students at the nearby University of Wisconsin-Whitewater.
