How You Can Help on Home and School or on School Council?

Many people think you have to attend every monthly council meeting to be part of council but that is just not so. While it is important to have a core group of parents to come out on a regular basis to form a Council, we recognize that this is not possible for every parent. There are many other volunteer opportunities to help on council and within the school. Council has several events throughout the year that need volunteers - Meet the Teacher Night; Hot lunches; Snack Program; Fundraising Events; Parent Involvement Committee; and Other Committees that need parent opinions, comments and help. Monthly Council Meetings are open to anyone (not just council members) who wishes to attend. Meeting dates are posted on the school website. Check it out and come when you can. We encourage you to get involved in a way that suits you best!
