Family Responsibilities Classroom Shifts Your volunteer role in the classroom will come every two to three weeks, depending on class size. Each group has one teacher and three parent assistants for snack, art, and game responsibilities. Being in the classroom lets you view and participate in your child's school experience in a memorable way. Meetings There are five mandatory meetings to attend throughout the school year: Orientation, Orientation Workshop, General Meeting, Evaluation Workshop, and General Meeting (with picnic). A detailed calendar is provided to you at the start of the school year to plan ahead. Parents are required to perform two maintenance duties per school year. One is a maintenance morning task such as painting or repair work, and the other is a housekeeping shift performing cleaning tasks in the classrooms. Parents are required to maintain a job or a committee position for the school year (i.e. Board member, Rummage Sale Committee, Family Fun Day Committee, etc.). There are many options to fit your personal passions and talents. Bringing together everyone's individual skills makes the co-op the great place that it is! Fundraising We offer many unique and memorable fundraising opportunities to keep costs reasonable. We offer family portraits, class portraits, Scholastic book sales, and Sees Candy sales. Participation in these are not mandatory. Our mandatory fundraisers are the annual rummage sale, and our Family Fun Day (carnival for kids). |
