The following is a
list of PTA events that occur at the beginning of the school year.
Volunteers are asked to sign up to help run these events in May so we can
organize them in August before school starts.
LUNCH ROOM VOLUNTEERS

Even
though the first grade teachers take the children through the lunch lines at
the start of school, there are lots of nervous children buying lunch at
school for the first time. A few volunteers are needed for the first four
days of school to help open milk, guide the children through the lunch
lines, and help the teachers with their regular duties. |
MEET THE BUSES
|
This
event is fun for the parents and important for the children. Every year the
bus numbers can change on the first day of school, a challenge to even
veteran students. The chairperson for this event arranges a group to get
together at the end of August to obtain bus routes from the Assistant
Principal and create “bus tags” given to students in grades K-2. The
volunteers then actually “meet the buses” as they drive up to the school
on the first day and hand out the bus tags so the children can refer to them
throughout the first weeks of school. |
ORIENTATION NIGHT
Contact:
Kathy Ahari |
This
is an evening for the children and parents to catch a glimpse of their
classroom assignment for the school year. It is held a few days before
school starts. Customarily there are no teachers present, but a map of the
teachers’ rooms is available that night.
Volunteers are needed to help photocopy the map and to meet and greet the
families as they arrive on orientation night. |
