Opportunities to Volunteer
We are proud of our strong tradition of parent volunteers! The following is a list of many of the areas in which we provide volunteers to support the school and Parent Crew Foundation events. If you indicated an interest in one or more areas when completing Online Check-In, a PCF committee chair will follow up once school starts to give you more information on these opportunities, or feel free to reach out to the contact person listed below. [Note for 2020/21 school year: COVID restrictions mean volunteering looks a little different this year, but we will be making as many opportunities to volunteer wherever possible. We appreciate your flexibility and ideas to make things as normal as possible for our Crews!]
