Our Programs
Addison Elementary School
During 2011-2012, generous support from parents and community donors
has allowed PiE to provide Addison with $155,763, which is spent on:
- General Classroom Aides, so that all classrooms will get at multiple hours of
vital classroom aide time weekly. PiE funds will pay more than three-quarters of
this time.
- More time with Bill the Science Guy from the Junior Museum and Zoo, so that all
students receive science instruction that is hands-on, experiential, and fun! PiE
funds will cover 100% of this program.
- Spectra Art, so that all classrooms benefit from regular art instruction, to build
student confidence and artistic expression. PiE funds will pay for nearly all of
this program at Addison.
- Staffing for the Imagination Garden during recess, so that children can have
access to a quieter place to be outside and peaceful
“I have worked with school districts all over the state of
California and no one prepares our children better for the 21st century economy than
PAUSD. They offer kids a program that is not only academically rigorous but includes
the arts and deep hands-on science instruction. I am deeply grateful to Partners In
Education for their major role in making that happen.”
