Steps to Get Started

Step 1 – Identify a small group of interested parents, administrators, and school staff.

Step 2 – Create a mission statement

Step 3 – Develop a curriculum for 1 or 2 grades. Start small and add more each year.

Step 4 – Partner with your PTO for support, volunteers, and funds. Create a PTO
committee to sustain the program from year to year.

Remember that members of the APS board would be happy to help you get started!

Indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.” --Margaret Mead
