Day Serves |
|
Have you ever thought to yourself that the Day School building could use some sprucing up??
Well here's your chance to help make that happen!
DayServes is happening this Saturday, Nov. 14th from 9am - 1pm and we need your help.
DayServes is just like Newton Serves except that all the work is for just our own school!
Volunteers are needed to help with raking leaves and painting classrooms/hallways. Both parents and children are invited to participate. If you can, please bring a rake and gloves - a tarp if you have one. We also need paint brushes and drop cloths.
Come for the morning or just an hour -- whatever you can spare. Refreshments will be served.
Please note that children must be supervised by a parent or other adult at all times. This is not a drop-off event and there will be no supervision of children provided by either the school or the PTO. |
