Volunteers Urgently Needed

Room Parents – Room parents check in with their teacher monthly to see what he or she might need (e.g., help with an event, field trip volunteers, etc.), organize a class potluck at the start of the year, and work with their grade representative to plan one grade-wide event. They might also organize a class gift in December and/or at the end of school. We need room parents for Eigner in 2nd Grade, Fournier in 3rd grade, Davis in 4th Grade and Morris and Wallace in 6th grade. School Council Members - Several seats will open this year at the Fort River School Council, a state-mandated elected body of parents and staff that help define the policies and procedures of the school. It meets monthly to work on the development of the budget, develop a school improvement plan, and make recommendations to the principal. If you are interested in running for one of the vacant seats (this is a two year commitment), please contact Catherine Sanderson.
