We Need Your Help

Parent Volunteers Needed

August 18, 2011

Dear Parents:

The school year is beginning and we need your help. One of the qualities we like to model for the students is service. We would love your help in modeling this value to the children. Tuition assistance credits are available to those who serve to help pay off any outstanding school fees. We really need help with volunteers for the school lunch and breakfast program. Winnebago Public will be preparing our meals but we will need individuals who can help transport the food and serve it to the students. We only have one staff member this year serving in the lunchroom. Below are some other areas where we need assistance as well.

We are in need of parents to help us in the following areas:

Serving breakfast or lunch to the students
Breakfast runs from 7:30-8:00 and lunch periods run from 11:15-12:30
Recess Supervision
Recess is from 10:00-10:30 and 11:45-12:45
Assist with after school dismissal
Dismissal runs from 3:30-4:00 daily
Assisting in the classroom
Reading with students, practicing math facts, literature centers, etc.
Working in the library
This can be scheduled at a time that works with your schedule
Assisting as chaperons on field trips
Field trips occur at different times in the year
Planning and assisting with a St. Augustine Pow-Wow.
We need help forming a committee to coordinate the pow-wow
Planning and assisting 8th grade and kindergarten graduation

If you feel you can assist with modeling a spirit of service to the students, please call the office and schedule your time to help. The school phone number is 402-878-2291. You can also email Barb at bkmccauley@schools.archomaha.org or return the slip at the bottom of this letter with your child.
