Volunteer!

Just a small donation of your time is greatly appreciated! There are many ways to get involved, so hopefully you'll see something that can work for you.

  • Help in your child's classroom.  Teachers can always use an extra set of hands, especially during special projects or for classroom parties/events.

  • Meet the Masters Art Program.  Without this, our school would not have an art program. No experience necessary, but if you feel like you are the crafty sort then this could be a great chance to share something wonderful with your child or the kids in another class. To assist with Meet the Masters, indicate that as your interest area on your 2 Hour Power Registration!

  • Popcorn Fridays.  It takes a lot of manpower to get a few hundred bags of popcorn popped, handed out and sold during a busy lunch recess.  Every other Friday, from about 9:30a to 1:30p we can always use some helping hands.

  • Special Events.  Staffing a booth at a carnival, assisting with crafts, field days, etc.  Throughout the year we have both day and evening events that can always benefit from parent involvement.

2 Hour Power

If you are starting to think it must be hard to keep track of everyone who wants to help... you are correct. But thanks to the wonders of technology, we are now excited to be using a new program called "2 Hour Power." It's a philosophy and a management tool all in one.

The philosophy is that if each family could pledge to give just two hours to their school, those small contributions would add up.  And this helps take the mystery and guesswork out of volunteering.  Many of you may think "I don't know what I could do" or "if I offer to help, I'll get roped into helping with everything and I just don't have time..." By pledging two hours, you can be confident we will help place you with a project that works for you -- and that no token of assistance will go unnoticed.

The software is a web-based tool that allows us to create a database of willing volunteers.  We can search based on interest or availability, and also track the time spent by each volunteer.

Volunteer Registration & Certification

The District has a new process for getting set up to volunteer in the schools, and you can submit your application online.  The process is not to make it difficult for you to participate, but is for the safety of our children so the schools know who is going to be on campus.

View the information on Volunteer Registration & Certification on the new District web site.
