Get involved in your child's education... Volunteer at school!!

There are plenty of opportunities at the school for you to volunteer. Whether you have an hour a week to spare, or just random bits of time here and there, we could use your help. See below for current needs. I also send out periodic e-mail messages requesting volunteers for one project or another. If you haven't received any of these messages yet, please send me your e-mail address and I will add you to the distribution list. Thanks!!

Current Volunteer Needs:
 

Listening Program:

We need volunteers to help with the Listening Program. One volunteer per morning, half an hour before school starts, from 7:40a.m. - 8:05 a.m., MTWThF. It can be one person all week, or a different person each day of the week.

Duties include helping children get set up on earphones and having them follow the correct sequence of the tracks on the CD. You can bring your own child with you -- they could read or do homework quietly in the room while you work, or they may play on the playground (playground is supervised for 1/2 hour before school). If you can help even one day a week, please contact Ellen Gallego at egallego@eusd4kids.org or by phone during school hours at 760-432-2260, ext. 222, or after 5 pm at 760-489-8909.

Library:

Parent volunteers are welcome in the library any time that the library is open:

Mon, Tues, Weds, Fri: 7:45 - 3:00

Thurs: 7:45 - 1:45

The best time for volunteers to come reshelf books is right after drop-off, because classes don't start in the library until 9:00 a.m. And there are no classes at all on Mondays! If you have little ones at home, feel free to bring them along and they can play quietly or read books while you work next to them.

Shirley Rochester, the Librarian, has a binder at her desk with easy instructions on how to reshelf books. so take a quick look and get started right away!

This year, it is currently scheduled for December 1-9, 2008. We also need volunteers during the school day throughout the book fair to handle sales. Please e-mail Paula Steidl at: Steidlfamily@cox.net.

Student Awards:

We are in need of a volunteer willing to take over the responsibility of handling student awards. An Awards Assembly is held approximately six times a year on a Friday morning. To prepare for an assembly, award buttons need to be counted, sorted by teacher/grade level (this can be done at home) and distributed to teachers prior to the assembly. The volunteer also coordinates with the cafeteria supervisor to order treats (i.e frozen fruit bars) that are stored in the cafeteria freezer until the afternoon of awards day. On awards day, the volunteer gets the treats from the cafeteria and distributes them to the winners outside of the cafeteria from about 2:00 - 2:25. Please e-mail Paula Steidl at: Steidlfamily@cox.net.

Kids College Liaison:

How would you like a FREE Kids College class for your child? It's at LR Green School --- very convenient, informative, and fun. All you have to do is...

Volunteer to be the L. R. Green Liaison for Kids College! As the L.R. Green Liaison, a scholarship for each session is given to the parent for their child to attend a class. Responsibilities include being available on campus the first week of your session to assist kids in finding the room and checking the enrollment sheet for those that are attending. It will take only 20-30 minutes each day after school for that first week. Your name and phone number would be listed on the Kids College fliers that are distributed at L.R. Green, so you can be contacted if anyone has questions. So far, the numbr of calls has been minimal. ou would meet with Carole (from Kids College) to go over all of the information. The Fall session begins the week of Sept. 22nd. If you are interested, or have any questions, please contact Carole Beeson at cbeeson21@san.rr.com.
