What have we here? When you come to Meet the Teacher on the 25th, you'll be able to register as a volunteer and get one of these babies. Each time you help out, you can get your card punched, and after you volunteer 5 times, you'll be entered into a drawing for a prize. Fill up as many cards as you can for more entries, and help out our amazing teachers, staff, and PTA in the process!
Signing up as a volunteer does not obligate you to volunteer. It just makes it MUCH easier down the road when you want to. You see, for the protection and safety of our staff and students, each volunteer must submit to a background check, and due to the sensitivity of the information you must provide for this, it has to be done on a secure server inside the school. It takes a week or two to get approved as a volunteer, and we sometimes find that folks want to volunteer for events at some point in the year, but they aren't cleared to do so, and by the time they get cleared, the event has passed.
Our goal this year is to get as many volunteers as possible signed up at the beginning of the year, and then to keep you busy reading to classes, cutting things out for teachers, telling your kid's class about your job, making copies, running flashcards, covering lunch duty, shelving library books, setting up/breaking down events, organizing food drives, helping with teacher appreciation, and anything else that might support our incredible teachers and students.
Head over to our volunteer interest page now, and fill out the form to tell us what you're interested in. Then make sure to register as a volunteer at the school to get the ball rolling!
