Volunteer
We encourage parents to get involved by volunteering. We love & appreciate our volunteers!
Be on the lookout for opportunities from your classroom teacher and the PTA. Some of these events include:
- Classroom parties
- Book fairs
- Afterschool events (Multicultural Night, Fall Festival, Math & Science Night, etc)
- Field Day
- Grade-level field trips
If you would like to donate items to the school, please contact your student's teacher for specific needs.
Thank you!
