THANK YOU Classroom Parents! Welcome Meeting on October 11 at 5:30pm



Thanks to everyone who volunteered to serve as a Classroom Parent! We are thrilled to have several new volunteers this year and look forward to meeting all of you. Thanks so much to the many parents who have been volunteering in this capacity for years and chose to continue doing so. We are so grateful!

We are still in need of a PGO Volunteer Coordinator to lead the Class Parent group. This can be done from home as it mainly involves forwarding emails. The tasks could even be largely automated through email forwarding. No experience needed - the PGO Board will happily mentor new volunteers.

If it works for your schedule, a great way to meet other volunteers is at our PGO Coffees with the Principal. The first one is this Friday, September 29 at 8:45 am in the library. In addition there will be a Meet & Greet for Classroom Parent Volunteers at 5:30 pm prior to Open House. The PGO Board will provide more details about Classroom Parent roles and answer your questions. Neither of these events are required. Details will be forthcoming via email. In the meantime, please introduce yourself to your child's teacher and let them know that you have volunteered. Contact information for families will be available once the Family Directory is distributed (within the next two weeks).


As a reminder, all volunteers in the ARPS district must have a current CORI on file. Please check with Suzanne in the Main Office to confirm that yours is valid or to complete the application; a valid license is required. The CORI lasts for three years.
