Today 7th grade Junior Docents from Elmwood Franklin School led their 4th graders on an exploration of the Center. The Burchfield Penney Junior Docent Program is designed by museum staff and docents to teach middle school students how to lead a group of younger students from their school on a museum tour. The program seeks to engage students with works of art that resonate and parallel their own life experiences. The four-week training provides positive experiences with adult role models and opportunities to gain self-confidence and public speaking skills.
