Volunteers: We need you!

Dear parents and members, one reason why our school thrives is because of you.  Without your help, many things would not be possible, in particular our baked goods sales during recess. These funds are then used for our traditional events, such as the Christmas Party or the Maifest.

We want to make it easy for parents and our members to signup for volunteering and therefore created an online sign-up site for Saturday tasks and cakes.  Please click on the SignUp Genius logo below to go to the website.
