This email contains descriptions of the Art Pathways classes for 2021-22 for 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th graders. It also contains a form for you to make your class selections. Our current students have already made their selections, so please choose your classes as soon as possible.
A few things to note:
Selections are a little different for 5th/6th & 7th/8th, so make sure you are viewing options for your grade and filling out the correct selection form.
Because current students were making their selections during the last school year, the grade they want you to select is for the 2020-21 school year you just finished. (Example - if you will be in 5th grade in 2021-22, indicate 4th grade on your form. )
We put these presentations together quickly a few months ago in the midst of COVID, so they are very informal, but should convey the information that you need to know.
Since the videos were made, Mr. Mierisch announced he was leaving for another non-teaching opportunity. Mr. Dominguez will be filling his role, but the IT positions will be somewhat revamped, so teachers for the media arts classes may change.
Questions about the classes or the process can be answered by Ms. Becky Manuel, our Director of Arts Integration, at rmanuel@aaca.school. Others that mentioned contacting them in the video are Ms. Amanda Thompson, drama, athompson@aaca.school and Mrs. Laura Gallinari, music, lgallinari@aaca.school.
Please contact me with any problems with this email or accessing the forms, or if you need help reaching someone else with a question.
Enjoy exploring your options!
Mrs. Mary Bodlak
