LIBRARY VOLUNTEERS The LRC is excited to be able to welcome parents that might like to volunteer some time to help us out in the LRC. This is an easy, fun way to be involved with the school. Spots are still available! All volunteers have to follow the building mitigation procedures. Sign up HERE

ART APPRECIATION Art Appreciation is a PTC sponsored program that recruits volunteers like you to give a 30-45 minute presentation on an artist, technique, or art movement. This program supplements your child's art education and all materials and instructions are provided for you! You don't need to be an artist or have an artistic background to help out. After some short preparation ahead of time, you will go to your child's classroom to present the artist or topic, show examples of prominent artworks, and then direct a short art project. If you are interested in guiding an art appreciation program in your child's class, please contact Melissa Dillenbeck or Wendy Maggin. You can also sign up HERE.

FAMILY FUN NIGHT Save the date!  Family Fun Night will be January 28, 2022 from 6:30 PM to 8 PM at the La Grange Park District.
