Parent Volunteers with Strong Math Skills Needed!
Two opportunities:
|
• |
4th, 5th and 6th grade students will be participating in the 2010 districtwide Math Field Day on Saturday, March 20th. We need parent volunteers to help prepare the students for this event. Please contact Ms. Weissenberger, Mrs. Garcia, Ms. Knight, or Mr. Davis for further details. |
| |
• |
Parent volunteers are also needed to help 4th and 6th graders with multiplication tables. Parents will participate in a short briefing with a teacher so they have some tools to use and then spend 20-30 minutes one-on-one with students who need help. If parents are interested, contact Erika Cooper. |
You do not have to have a child in those grades to help. However, you do need to have a current TB test on file. |
| |
Save the date - Read Across America!
Parent and community volunteers will have the opportunity to read in classrooms on March 1st (kindergarten only) and March 2nd (grades 1-6), 9:00-10:30am.
