Taught by Nick Clark
For ages 9-12
This November, America will be choosing its next president, and it's hard to go anywhere without hearing about someone who wants the job. So let's take a moment to look at the one candidate everyone should be talking about: YOU!
Think you could balance the budget? Are taxes too high? Want to make homework illegal and give everyone free ice-cream sandwiches for life? Here's your chance to let your voice be heard! We'll be learning more about the job, and who we think did it the best (how did George Washington get on that dollar bill anyway?).
Then, each student will have the chance to craft their own Presidential Address about the issues that matter to them. These world class oratorios will be read aloud and filmed for our official campaign video, 826 in '08.
PLEASE NOTE: Enrollment for this workshop will be determined by LOTTERY. Please submit the information below by or on May 31st to be considered for this class. The lottery will be conducted on June 1st, and parents will be notified by email on June 2nd.
