Volunteer: June 2008 Archives

How to volunteer

|

Volunteer now!

To volunteer your time, simply e-mail us your name, child’s name, and their teacher’s name.

Browse the volunteer opportunities to see if there something that interests you, but don’t be shy about contacting us. We can always use some help!

Why volunteer?

Because it’s fun!

But also because excellent schools don’t just happen, they are created. Schools with strong parent involvement programs experience profound benefits for students, parents, teachers, and administrators. Research shows that when parents are involved in students’ education, those students generally have higher grades and test scores, better attendance, and more consistently completed homework.

Every day offers a fresh opportunity to get involved with your child.

You’re invited to the annual Volunteer Appreciation Tea on Thursday, June 12th, 2008 at 3:15pm in the Parkwood gymnasium.

Children are invited and welcome to join in this great event put on by our teachers, administration, and PTA to say thank you for all the hours of service you have given to Parkwood and our kids this year. Our school wouldn’t be what it is without each of you.

So mark your calendars, check backpacks this next week for more information and plan on stopping by this fun event where we honor you for your wonderful service, invite newcomers to learn about ways to volunteer at Parkwood, and give you a inside look to what’s cooking for next year!

See you Thursday, June 12 at 3:15pm!
