Drew Model School seeking Donations




The Drew Model School in Arlington Virginia will be having a fundraiser on 
Friday April 20, 2012

Drew Model Elementary School has started a pilot Ladies and Gentlemen's Etiquette Club, called Lovely Ladies and Jazzy Gents.  We will be hosting a Hand Dance/Swing Dance and Art Sale on Friday, April 20, 2012 from 6:30 - 8:30 p.m.

They are looking for artists who would be willing to donate some of their artwork that would be sold. Proceeds from the sale will go to the etiquette club.

Admission is on a "Donation Basis" and any art is priced to sell.  All proceeds will go to the Club's etiquette program.  The Ladies and Gentlemen will be performing and teaching the audience their latest moves!!!  There will also be a little display/presentation of the work they have been doing.

A little more about the Ladies and Gentlemen's Club:
It helps the kids to build their self-confidence and awareness.
The Club incorporates curriculum/academics and ties them to the activities in the club.
There is dancing. The dancing is a great way to help them with geometric shapes and fractions, something they need for their SOLs.
The etiquette lessons are connected to Language Arts SOLs. It is the goal for them to improve in public presentations, writing, and reading skills.

Deadline to participate: April 19th
If you have any questions, please contact Ms. Edwards at  phyllis.edwards@apsva.us
