Welcome
Back!
If
it feels like the summer was awfully short, you are
not alone!
Here in the Arts & Enrichment offices we spent
the summer working on next years big events, like Arts
Professional Development Day and Showcase,
details of each to come.
We have also worked with our Communications
department to revamp, update & supercharge our Arts
& Enrichment Resource Directory.
Stay tuned as we roll out the new and improved
version in the near future!
We
wish you all a great new school year!

Professional
Development
Opportunities
At
School Support Services, Arts & Enrichment is part
of a larger organization which is geared to bring teachers
and administrators various professional development
opportunities.
Those coming in the near future can be found here.
In
the arts, we have our own!
Some are geared toward those teaching in the arts
and others are for those in the classroom who wish to
integrate the arts into the curriculum.
Join us on November 14th as we welcome Julie Kabat

Get
SPONTANEOUS!
Spontaneous
Plus !!! is a fall workshop to be held at: Averill
Park High School, 146 Gettle Road, Averill Park, NY 12018
on September
20, 2008 -
registration begins at 8:30 am, program starts promptly at
9:00 am.
For the seventh consecutive year, the New York State Odyssey
of the Mind
program is offering a workshop to help young people hone
their creative problem solving skills. In the past we have
focused on improving skills and techniques for solving
Spontaneous problems. And, again this year, we will
include a "Style" segment with the program.
The workshop is open to both program participants and to
adults (coaches, officials, etc.). It's a great way for
coaches and officials to pick up some information and
participate in the program. The workshop is limited to the
first 100 registrants, so please click on the link to the NYSOMA
web page and register early.

Fingerprinting
Artists
Late last year, the Capital Region BOCES Board of
Education passed rigorous Fingerprinting regulations, by
which our Arts In Education Artists must abide.
We are working with the artists to ensure that they
meet these requirements.
When
you have artists in your schools, please remember that
they must at all times be supervised by District
personnel!
Thanks for your attention to this vital AIE Rule!
