After School Drama Director

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Volunteer Center of Sonoma County

Volunteer would ideally have some background in theater, but we can also train someone with related experience. The commitment would be to participate in up to a few hours of training, if needed, and to lead a group of 10-25 children, meeting 1x per week for 1.0-1.5 hours after school for about 10 weeks until the performance was ready to present. The Volunteer Director would also lead the children through the performance. Volunteer would be supported by A Theater For Children in materials needed, like script,costumes, and simple sets. Ideally ATFC will also be able to provide a sound system for the show and possibly
stage lighting. Volunteer Show Director would also be placed at a site by the Boys & Girls Club of Central Sonoma County and assisted by someone on their staff. To apply, email Bridget Palmer, ATFC After School Program Coordinator at admin@santarosatheaterforchildren.com.

Mission Statement

Description

Work in the classroom under the direction of the teacher helping students with reading and/or math. This requires a commitment of 1 hr./wk for a school semester. Volunteers must be fingerprinted.

The Literacy Connection Academic Mentor program has just completed 12 years of recruiting, training, and preparing volunteers to go into the classrooms of Sonoma County K-12 schools. This year 250 volunteers worked in 30 different schools helping students in the regular classroom and in the after-school programs. One-on-one help is sometimes the only way that students who are also learning English as a second language can do their work. Sometimes the student has experienced so much failure in his school life that he is reluctant to participate in class activities. He has lost self esteem. Volunteer helpers give that student a no-risk opportunity to experience success - even one word at a time.
