Do you have a hobby you would be willing to share with a group of students?
Please consider volunteering to co-host an after school enrichment club for students. As a volunteer, you would partner with one or more of our staff members to sponsor a group from 3:30-4:30 pm. once a week for 6-8 weeks at a time.
Currently, we have the following enrichment groups on campus:
- Fort Worth After school Program: M-Th 3:00-5:30PM (still some spots open)
- Diamond Painting 3rd grade (full)
- Pearls With Purpose Girls Mentoring Group 3rd-5th grade (full)
- Choir: 4th-5th grade (full)
- Student Council (elected members)
- Ambassadors Boys Leadership Group (Selected students)
Since most of our current groups are full, we are looking for others who would like to start a new group. Please let us know if you would be willing to work with students and help sponsor a club here: https://forms.gle/uaiCvYxei1r8KYX1A
Coming up soon...
