Parent Volunteer Opportunities
ROOM PARENTS
Room parents are an important link between parents, teachers, and the Council. They help solicit volunteers for classroom and school functions; aid teacher(s) with party or special activity preparation; and organize classroom teacher gifts. We'd like two room parents per class and two for each day of PMO. A room parents meeting will be held soon to share enthusiasm, creativity and ideas.
FUNDRAISING
Fall/Halloween Festival
Our first event of the year is a relaxing evening of food and fellowship for teachers, parents, and kids. Help is needed with setup and clean-up, as well as taking tickets and serving food during the event.
Help is needed with set and close-down, as well as selling books during the Fair's open hours.
