Upcoming Events
Supporting Art Education at Richard Gordon Elementary
Did you know our school lacks art teachers due to budget constraints?
To ensure art rem!ains part of our curriculum, the Richard Gordon PTA funds the Art Docent program. This initiative provides art supplies, lesson plans, and a dedicated space—The Da Vinci Room—complete with a kiln for pottery projects.
We rely on volunteers like you to keep this program thriving. Becoming an Art Docent is a rewarding way to support our students' creativity without needing prior teaching experience or artistic skills. Training and resources are provided by the North Kitsap School District and our experienced team of docents.
Join us in enriching education through art at Richard Gordon Elementary!
