PICTURE DAY COORDINATOR NEEDED!

SAY CHEESE!
PICTURE DAY COORDINATOR NEEDED!
Picture Day is Tuesday, October 21st.  We need a volunteer to help schedule and coordinate other volunteers.   The photographers from Grynn & Barrett are very experienced with working with children but the teachers do like to have an extra set (or two) of hands to help get the classes to and from the library, keep order in the line, maybe help a with a messy face or hair emergency.  A schedule with class "photo sessions" will be coming home soon along with orders.  If you can help as the coordinator, please contact Liz Larson and be a part of this school tradition.  And remember, a portion of each picture package sale goes to support our school field trip fund!

Volunteering at Fort River: CORI Checks

If your school or PGO volunteer opportunities bring you into contact with students at school or on a field trip, you must have a CORI* check on file.  This includes all field trip chaperones and classroom volunteers (e.g. grandparents, aunts & uncles, adult siblings).  CORI checks must be done on individual volunteers every three years and are valid for all schools within our district.   If you would like to check to see if you are current on your CORI'd status, please call Sasha in the Central Office at 362-1810.

To request a  CORI check, bring your current driver's license into the Main Office at Fort River or to the district's Central Office (located at the middle school) for photocopying and complete the required application well in advance of any volunteer obligations.  Questions about the CORI process can be directed to the FR Main Office at 362-1200 or Sasha in the Central Office at the number above.
