In-School Activities
Many of our wonderful programs are generously supported by the Kettering PTA!
The Art At Your Fingertips (AAYF) program is a partnership between the Palos Verdes Art Center (PVAC) and Kettering Elementary. Each year, PVAC selects original works of art from local artists and trains school parents on how to work with students to recreate the paintings in their classrooms. Students learn about art history, technique, colors, and different mediums for artistic expression. Kettering Elementary is proud to participate in this outstanding program this year.
Ground Ed curriculum provides outdoor garden, science, and sustainability lessons during the school day that support a broad range of CA Content Standards, including Language Arts, Science, History-Social Studies, and Visual Arts. Ground Ed lessons take place in our lovingly cared-for school garden and are led by Ground Ed certified garden educators. Lessons are designed to reinforce what students are learning in the classroom, providing important hands-on experiences in the context of the natural world.
