Be a Morning Circle Guest Speaker
Kick off your morning at Link! Do you remember a time when a guest speaker spoke to your class in morning circle and inspired you? Perhaps the speaker even inspired where you enrolled in school or the career you have pursued. Our current scholars love this continued tradition and who better to inspire them than a former Link alumnus! You may present about your educational path, career, a hobby or a cause you are passionate about. Email linkalumni@linkschool.org with “Morning Speaker” in the subject line to schedule a date and topic to present to the Lower House (5th and 6th grades) or Upper House (7th and 8th grades).
Teach an Elective Class
“You cannot be what you cannot see.” -Marian Wright Edelman
Link believes that exposure to eye opening experiences that develop content knowledge, skills and new interests is critical to spark interest and inspire our scholars to be all that they can be. Do you have a skill or hobby that you would like to expose current Linkers too? Can you commit to come to Link for one hour on Friday mornings for 8 to 10 weeks? If so, apply to teach an elective class today!
Link’s electives program consists of weekly co-curricular classes on Friday mornings. Classes are taught to a mixed grade group of eight to 12 students in 7th and 8th grades. Past course topics have included but are not limited to play production, African dance, girls music group, mosaic glass art, boatbuilding, 3D printing, food and culture, entrepreneurship, fashion design, photography, financial investing and more!
Email linkalumni@linkschool.org with “Elective Class” in the subject line, and include in the email your topic and why you would love to teach it as an electives instructor at Link! A member of our team will be in touch to discuss the possible class.
