Dear Parent or Guardian,

The Student U and Durham Art Guild Creative Mentorship Program is a excellent, free opportunity for students to develop their creative voice and learn under the mentorship of a professional local artist. The success of this program depends on parents’ support of their students in the participation of all aspects of this program.

Participating students commit to working with Durham Art Guild mentors for 2 hours every week and one Saturday a month (up to 4 hours) from January 11 – May 27, 2016, and be actively involved in the exhibit in June 2016. The consistent weekly commitment to attend student-mentor meetings from January – May ensures that the artist mentors can support students, students can take full advantage of the arts resources offered by the program, and students can grow as artists.

Student U and the Durham Art Guild will cover the cost of all materials for the program. However, families are responsible for their own transportation to the weekly meetings with artist mentors at Golden Belt and to monthly Saturday field trips (students will meet at Golden Belt).

During the Creative Mentorship Program, students must continue to fully participating in all other Student U High School Program requirements (checking in with your advocate, attending monthly cluster meetings, attending U-Prep & Community Days).

3. HOJA DE COMPROMISO DEL PADRE (Esta sección tiene que ser llenado por el padre o tutor legal del estudiante).

Estimado padre o tutor legal,

En colaboración con el Gremio de Arte de Durham, Student U ofrece un Programa Creativa de Mentores, una oportunidad excelente y gratis para los estudiantes de desarrollar su voz creativa y aprender bajo la tutoría de un artista profesional local. El éxito de este programa cuenta con los padres para apoyar la participación de los estudiantes en cada aspecto de este programa.

Los estudiantes que participan se comprometen a trabajar con su mentor del Gremio de Arte de Durham por 2 horas cada semana y un sábado cada mes (hasta 4 horas) desde el 11 de enero hasta el 27 de mayo de 2016 y ser involucrado activamente en la exposición de arte en junio de 2016. El compromiso semanal constante de asistir a las juntas con su mentor de enero a mayo asegura que los mentores artistas puedan apoyar a los estudiantes, que los estudiantes aprovechen de los recursos artísticos del programa, y que los estudiantes crezcan como artistas.

Student U y el Gremio de Arte de Durham cubrirán todos los costos de materiales para el programa. Sin embargo, las familias son responsables de su propio transporte a las juntas semanales con los mentores artistas en Golden Belt (807 E Main St, Durham, 27701) y a los paseos un sábado cada mes (los estudiantes partirán de Golden Belt para estos paseos).

Durante el Programa Creativa de Mentores, los estudiantes deben continuar participando plenamente en todos los otros requisitos del programa de escuela secundaria de Student U (juntas semanales con su mentor académico de Student U, asistir a las reuniones mensuales de Student U en su escuela, asistir a los días comunitarias y días U-Prep en Student U).

Favor de contestar las siguientes preguntas. Se puede escribir sus respuestas a máquina o claramente a mano y adjuntarlas a este solicitud. Esperamos sus respuestas y trabajar juntos. Si tiene preguntas, no dude en comunicarse con la Srta. Anna en 919-808-1905 o [email protected]

Nombre del padre o tutor legal: ____________________________La mejor manera de comunicarse con usted: __________________________

1. ¿Va a poder proporcionar transporte para su hija/o? Si no va a poder, ¿cómo va a ir y venir de Golden Belt su hija/o para sus juntas semanales con su mentor artista?
