VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES

Our goal is to connect as many people (parents, extended family, older siblings, community leaders, etc.) who want to be engaged with our school with opportunities that fit their interest, skills and schedules. There are a wide variety of volunteer opportunities each year – everything from a one-time volunteer role at an event to a year-long leadership position to everything in between.

The PTA is always looking for parents interested in serving in a leadership capacity. There are a number of chairperson roles needed to be filled each year, plus leaders to serve on the Executive Board.  The PTA is currently in need of a Yearbook Chair, who would coordinate photos and take photos, and a Volunteer Chair, who would connect parents with volunteer needs and train them when needed.

​Reach out to PTA Volunteer Chair Angel Nonye-John ([email protected]) to learn more.

 This annual event is a great way to meet other families. Help in the planning and preparation of main event, activities, and food or volunteer to work just on the night of the event. Bingo Night is held in October of each school year.

Held in April of each year, the annual Spring Fling is another school-wide event for families that  features lots of different activities, games and food.  Volunteers are need to help with planning and work the event itself. 

The outdoor classroom provides hands-on learning experiences, focusing on agricultural and environmental issues, as well as awareness of natural resources and conservation. Help is needed with seasonal planting and maintenance.

International Night is held in January of each school year.  Volunteers are needed to assist with the planning and execution, including decorating with student-made International Paper Dolls, obtaining entertainment, and coordinating parent volunteers to provide ethnic food tastings. 

Ideal for parents or grandparents available during school hours.  Assist students in checking books in and out and re-shelve materials. Volunteers interact directly with students and faculty. Volunteer shifts are normally divided into morning and afternoon.

Room Parents are essential volunteers for each classroom. As part of the volunteer efforts of the PTA, they receive support through resources, ideas, funding and a network of fellow volunteers. Room Parents also recruit and lead fellow parents to assist with any and all of the classroom activities.
