Do you know a student who could volunteer?
We've got two great events coming up, but we NEED volunteers to make them a success! High school (or even college) students are encouraged to help with our Kindness Retreat on Jan. 21 and the PAC's Friendship Dance on Feb. 2. Spread the word!
Watch D.O.G.S.
Watch D.O.G.S. may stand for “Dads Of Great Students,” but if you’re an adult male who’s a positive role model for an Adams student, this one is for you! Come hang out with our students at recess to provide extra supervision…and maybe even play a little. Sign up here if you’re interested in learning more.
Skillbuilders
Skillbuilders is a program that helps students with basic reading and math skills. If you can help our youngest learners identify the alphabet, practice letter sounds, and count to 30 - sign up today!
Be the first to hear of new opportunities by filling out the application today.
Community Education
Indoor Soccer Program
This indoor soccer program provides an organized, entertaining and educational sports experience. We believe that youth sports should be about more than skills and scores. While we teach students to play the sport, we also feel it is important to develop their character by teaching sportsmanship and celebrating players who demonstrate these values. The game emphasizes skillful play and creativity in the smaller playing area of the gym. There is both a 4:05pm and 5:15 pm session,
