Volunteer Opportunities

We appreciate our parent volunteers! They are a very special resource. Parents help in classrooms, with programs and activities. Parents are encouraged to sign up for volunteer services needed by the school and to ask teachers about classroom needs. Along with helping the school, it is a great way to meet fellow parents!
