We are still looking for volunteers for the following Parent Council activities:
1.
Savings Makes Cents: This is a really fun, easy way to help our kids learn to save. Saving Makes "Cents" is a program to encourage savings habits and goal setting. Children can open a bank account with Florence Savings Bank and can bank weekly in the cafeteria with help from parent volunteers (or directly at the bank). Only $1.00 is needed to open an account, and any amount can be deposited—and after 10 deposits, the Bank will deposit $1.00 into the account.
We need 1 or 2 volunteers to work with Barbara Morse to help students make Deposits into their Savings accounts on Tuesday mornings from 8:15 am to 8:45 am. Contact Barbara Morse (253-9160;
bmlmorse@comcast.net) for more information.
2.
Resource Coordinators for
Same-Sex Parent Families and for
Single-Parent Families. Resource coordinators act as a contact for families with questions about Fort River and the community.
3.
The Beach Party. The Beach Party is a fun evening social event for families featuring live music, dancing and ethnic foods from around the world (and sometimes colorful tropical clothes and accessories). Committee members advertise the event, decorate the cafeteria in a beach theme, order food, and of course help with set up and clean up.
